I blame that they used to suck and people are having a hard time forgetting that. They are better now than they were thats for sure. Originally the only thing they had going for them was viewing angle and 'cool' factor. Resolutions were always way behind other technologies, lifespan was shorter (even now they are dead when they are done...no bulb can restore it), burn-in was a BIG issue, and the cost was WAY too high. Everyone I know that bought early versions regret it. The only thing they are happy with is it hangs on the wall.
They have come to the point now where I would consider buying one....but I'm not in the market. Too late plasma.
boulderhorn..are you arguing 1080p ISNT better? Nobody would need a sales person to tell them that...its quite obvious it is.
