Looking to buy flat screen 1080p as stated above - know my choices are Plasma, LCD and rear projection LCD. Not interested in a 400 lb tube. What's the latest and greatest?

Right now LCD is it. 1080P plasmas are just now being released at CES. The smallest "rear projection LCD 1080P set" that I know of is the 50" SXRD but nothing smaller... yet.
I would pay attention to the CES reports to see what's coming.
If you want to buy now your options are fairly limited. If you want a name brand set then Sharp is pretty much it. The others like Westinghouse etc are not household names like Sharp, Sony, Panasonic etc. -
Yup, Sharp or Sony LCD's, Panasonic Plasma (though not currently 1080p) or SONY SXRD RPTV would be your best bet, though they're all still inferior PQ to CRT. SED is coming but you'll have to wait 1-2 years to get anything besides bleeding edge first run products....
Pay close attention to CES this month and see what comes up

For a few weeks now roumours began to circulate that they were about to launch a 47" LCD TV for €1795 (about $2k). Nothing... -
For those of you not scouring the web for CEDIA FP news - a quick roundup:
The Sony HS51 appears to be a big jump for LCD. Picture is generally comparable to HS20 by reports, SDE and VB etc. On
ff CR is very definitely improved, though. Maybe not to the alleged 6000:1 level, but...

CEDIA REPORT 2004
My main impression at CEDIA this year, at least when it comes to projectors, was that it was mainly a repeat of last year’s show. I saw many of the same pieces trotted... -
In the market in the next couple months to replace my Samsung DLP display. I had a great experience with my current samsung but want something a little bigger and with the changes to LED displays with blu-ray, I need to catch up. lol.
