Panasonic PT-50LC14 50" Widescreen HD-Ready Television
Good Picture - Terrible Reliability
BEWARE!!! This model, the PT-50LC14 and the previous model both use the same lcd lamps.  They are faulty and cost $300 a piece.  Do a search online for Panasonic LCD Lamps - there are literally thousands of people who have experience multiple lamp failures in the first year alone.    Panasonic claims the expected lamp life on their LCD televisions is 10,000 hours.  I've had my television for 3 months, so maybe 300 hours of viewing time - the lamp just BLEW.  I thought I maybe I just had a bad lamp, but upon doing some research, this is a rampant problem.  The first thing the Customer Service person did is have me look at the lamp, before troubleshooting anything else.      I do not recommend you purchase this TV unless you can afford to buy at least one $300 lamp every year.
