How common are stuck or dead pixels on a new plasma?

I've been planning on buying the 46pz85u that it's starting to induce headaches (religiously watching price rise and drops on amazon 30 times a day, and shit like that).

But from what I can gather, it's more common than not to get a stuck or dead pixel. Instead of hearing "it's rare," I'm hearing more "dude it's not like you can see them when you're in your normal viewing distance so just chill."

For $1500 I'm not going to chill on a TV that's not 100%.

I'd rather get a cheap price with amazon, but if I have to I'll make an ass out of myself by bringing an SD card to circuit city with solid color images to make sure it's good before bringing it home.

Have any of you guys actually tested your screens for stuck or dead pixels with a "break-in disc?" Chances are, if you haven't already, don't do it now because you'll have a few deadies. Why in 2008, instead of charging forward with trying to make the damn things thinner, can't they just perfect the picture and pixel integrity?
