Options now..
1. Samsung LA52 (6 series)
2. Sony W52
3. Pioneer Kuro 50"
4. Hitachi P50X
5. Panasonic Viera TH50PZ

The TV will be wall mounted and 99% of her viewing is cable. 1% is DVDs of her grandson.
Well I'm not impressed by the P50X01. It has *significant* flicker on static white backgrounds. Its an almost fatal flaw. Even though the panel overall is quite close to the Panasonics, this issue is a write off for me. If you'd wanna spend 3lacs, I'd not even think of anything but the Kuro. Nothing else is even half as good.

I'd go on to say that the 720p Kuro is better than 99% of 1080p LCDs and Plasmas. Spatial resolution is clearly overrated. Pioneer is available in India with warranty. Not sure of the Bombay dealer though.
