Default Which is better Panasonic 50PZ80 or Sony KDL 46W300

Which is better Panasonic 50PZ80 or Sony KDL 46W300? Where I'm at, my choices are very limited and I have reduced it to these two tvs. Anyone have any recommendations?

The plasma is capable of giving the best overall picture....(Best Blacks, better detail in shadow areas, better color saturation, NO motion Blur)
BUT
it will not do that if the room is very brightly lit.
If there is a lot of windows or sun coming in you would most likely be happier with the LCD.
You will have to make the call for your self as you best know your veiwing room..

KDL-46V4100 has true 24p

the W3000 is a 2007 model, the Panasonic PZ80 is a 2008 model

i just had the 50pz80 and personally i didn't like it. i use to have a 42'' pioneer elite 720p. i decided i wanted to go bigger so i went with the panny. i got home and the hd channels didn't look as crisp as the pioneer, not even on blu-ray. i asked the guy at the store why it didn;t look as good he told me the panny has a feature called pixel shifter, which make the edges of images look jagged. i had it for a week to see if i could get used to it, but i couldn;t and returned it and just ordered the pioneer pro1150.

You'd most likely be happier buying curtains and the plasma.
