My criterion:
- $1,000 or less.
- 42" or more.
- 1080p.
- Contrast ratio of at least 10,000:1 for halfway decent blacks. The Westinghouse is only 1,000:1. A commonly accepted "decent" value is 1,500:1.
- 16ms response time. I couldn't find out the Westinghouse's response time -- the manufacturer's web site is currently toast, always a good sign.
- Remote controlled rotating and tilting wall mount! Oh yeah baby!

You do know that 1080p is mostly meaningless, right?
No current HD is broadcast higher than 1080i and they have no plans to move to 1080p. (Many are 720p even)
Of course, I knew this and got a 1080p TV anway... ;)
I just don't want to have to get a new TV for 10 years after I finally make the HD jump :-)
Ooh, now I want to add "120Hz" to my desirable bullets.
