The Bottom Line	While we have not reviewed the PDP-6010FD and PDP-5010FD, we have reviewed the very similar Pioneer PDP-5080HD.	The Pioneer Elite PRO-111FD represents the pinnacle of flat-panel HDTV picture quality.	The Pioneer PDP-5080HD produces the deepest shade of black--and thus one of the best pictures--we've ever tested.	CNET did not review the Pioneer Elite Kuro PRO-151FD, but we did review a smaller model in the same series.	It costs a mint, but Samsung's local dimming, LED-based UNB8500 series delivers the best picture quality of any LCD we've tested.
