And that Samsung UN46B7000 is LED edge lit and not back lit with local dimming, so I advise you to completely avoid that TV. According to the Cnet review done on an edge lit set the results were very sub par and it was no better than traditional LCD's. If you want an LED back lit set with local dimming which will perform very well then you should look at THIS 46" Samsung or THIS 47" LG. I still think the Panny is the better way to go especially since its within your budget. Its one of the best TV's you can get.

NO.. it wont blow it away.. And even if YOU thought it would blow it away , he may thing the same as me , where its not close.. Those panasonic Viera's are nice , ( 800u, 85u of last year ) but was disappointed.. the breakdown..
One of my tv's is the sammy LN52A750
BAsically the same as yhe OP wants for this year--
I researched for MONTHS and was in store viewing and comparing reviews on the top AV forums with ppl who live and breathe HT... And i chose the sammy LCD.. WHy??
Whiter whites ( by far )
Black levels were near the same, SOmetimes my 750 actually looked darker ESPECIALLY in light..
Much more vivid color , with not a drop of saturation
NO motion blur
READ the REVIEWS.. do you know how many people rated this as the 3rd best PQ TV ( plasma OR LCD ) Number one being The 50" Kuro.. #2 being the 55" sammy series 9 ( 950 )
So really.. the OP needs to look for himself.. You telling him a panny plasma is gonna "smoke " this samsung is Bias and ignorant ..
But hey OP.. If you want something that sucks in the light, has urine whites and is not as detailed in any way.. go with the panasonic
