The Bottom Line	We preview Pioneer's PDP-70HD series, the company's 2006 line of plasma TVs.	The Pioneer Elite PRO-111FD represents the pinnacle of flat-panel HDTV picture quality.	It costs a mint, but Samsung's local dimming, LED-based UNB8500 series delivers the best picture quality of any LCD we've tested.	The high-end Panasonic TC-PV10 series of plasmas delivers the overall best picture quality of any flat-panel HDTV we've tested so far this year.	With excellent picture quality marred by only a couple of flaws, the Panasonic TC-PG10 series sits near the head of the class of 2009.
