Hello ... I have a credit t use with a sony credit card I have. I would like to use this to buy a Sony plasma. Let me give you some background so you can offer the best advice.

The use of this Plasma will be for the bedroom and HDTV is not needed.

]I will be conecting a Progressive Scan DVD Player and a SD DirecTV Tivo box to this unit.

I'd like to keep the cost under $ 1,500 dollars and as mentioned above I'd like it to be a Sony to take advantage of the $ 800 dollar credit I have with them.

Now, I have heard that the Sony PFM-42V1 has an excellent interlace to progressive conversion circuitry. I can find this model for $ 1,399.99.
I have also seen the price for the FWD-42PV1 for $ 1,489.99 and was wondering how this compairs to the PFM model? Are there any other models you would recommend?

Thank you in advance for you time.

Jason

Also is there any real difference in the business models that I have listed above and the consumer models (besides a built in tuner)? Again the large majority of viewing will be Standard Def
