Then maybe you should do more research. Plasmas do still burn in, although it is harder to do it. Playing video games for hours with the same HUD up will burn in a plasma. I know, I worked in a store that sold HDTV's, If you put the plasmas that had been out on the floor for over a few weeks onto a static color image(a grey or white screen mainly) the burn in stood out clearly, it also stood out on the World Cup fields.
And your not going too see the screen door on an LCD if you are viewing it from the proper distance. All it affects is the overall brightness of the screen, not the picture. And yeah, i get the rainbow effect too with DLP, really sucks.
Coll Storm: What kind of television service are you going to use? If you want satellite then the tv doesn't need to have a built in HD tuner, as the satellite receiver will provide that for you. As for finding one in that size and price range, you are most likely only going to find an off-brand model with a low contrast rating and low quality screen, resulting in dead pixels occuring.
