The Bottom Line	For many less critical viewers, the Vizio VP50HDTV's bargain pricing will be worth the trade-off in picture quality.	The Vizio SV470XVT represents a viable alternative for LCD TV bargain hunters who want 120Hz processing.	With the accuracy of its THX mode and great black-level performance, the Panasonic TH-50PZ800U is one of the best-performing HDTVs available.	Accurate color helps set apart the excellent picture quality of the Samsung PN50A550 50-inch plasma TV.	Panasonic's TH-42PX80U 42-inch plasma sets the picture quality-to-value standard for entry-level plasma TVs.
