i replaced 1080p LCD with this 720p set 50px80u, i have read reviews and done comparison at store also . in order to see the pixel size you need to be at least less than one foot. Home theater magazine have done a good comparison of tvs with all technologies, they have picked 50 inch 720p pioneer plasma over all 1080p sets (LCD and RP sets). This panny 720p entry level plasma beat my 1080p Samsung LCD in black levels and off axis viewing and picture details is lot better. i had no problem buying a 1080p set but did not see much of difference worth $500 price (Cnet has same conclusion and i don't disagree). my viewing distance is 12 -15 feet.
