However, panel resolution is really so far down the list of considerations that it baffles me why it's the #1 talking point. As already pointed out in this thread, ANSI contrast ratio, calibration options, video processing, colour accuracy, etc., are all far more important.

You are 100% correct in regards to "ANSI contrast ratio, calibration options, video processing, colour accuracy, etc., are all far more important"

My brother has a samsung 1080p 40" LCD and I have a Panasonic 720p 50" Plasma and the same bluray movies , both played on a ps3 with same settings look noticeable better on my 720p set than his 1080p
