Helping a friend decide

[BStecke]

I've got a friend who's trying to decide between the Panasonic TH-50PZ85U plasma and the Samsung LN-T4671F LCD. I'm doing my own research, but if anybody has any opinions that would save me some time, I'd appreciate it. I read the review for the Panasonic on Cnet, but that wasn't too helpful as they lingered on the fact that color accuracy was a bit off and the NR settings weren't that great, but he's getting it ISF calibrated and, if he listens to uncle BStecke, won't be using the noise reduction settings. So . . . like I said, I'm doing my own research, but if you can help me be lazy, I'd appreciate it.

I'm leaning toward the plasma as I've never really had a fondness for LCD. He'll be using it mainly with his PS3, mostly Blu-ray but some games.

Also, I'm not taking price into consideration at all. He's young, single, and a manager at Best Buy, so he's got extra money, plus he gets the discount, so I'm not making any recommendations based on price. Looking strictly at quality.

One question, right off the bat, as I'm surprised I'm not seeing it . . . is the Panny 120Hz?
