not as good as other types
LCD : Viewing good in dark or room with some light from
windows, doors, room lights, excellent with video games
almost no screen burn, excellent color reproduction,
generally largest size is 50", good viewing angles
cost less then Plasma
DLP : Very similer to LCD in all characteristics, much less
expensive then Plasma & LCD, Plasma & LCD run around 4"
to 6" in depth but DLP generally are from 9" to 16" in depth,
lamp life has improved greatly and cost has come down
Size depend on the size of the room which you didn't mention and how many people normally watch the TV at one time (because of viewing angle. The most recognized brands (Sony, Panasonic, Samsung, Mitshu and several others are the best rated) Your best bet is to pick up a copy of CONSUMER REPORT, the TV issue.
Good Luck

Not even close, stupid. and Consumer Reports is for those that don't care what they get.
To clear up the confusion caused by Rubber Dummy:
There's flat screens, which are Plasma and LCD. Then there are Rear projections which are LCD, DLP, LCoS variants, and finally tube. Tube is the absolute best except it's brightness and side viewing is impacted.
LCoS-types (Sony's SXRD) and DLP in a 50" screen or viewed by the less than discernable eye, is close.
