Korey, or anyone else, do you recommend a particular set?  I am hoping to purchase a 42" plasma display by the years end and will probably start looking around in a month or two.  What are your thoughts on buying EDTV / HDTV ready / HDTV? 

Just looking at websites, it seems you can pay $2k more or so for a full out HDTV plasma set?  I am mostly concerned in the quality of DVD playback, and I don't watch very much TV at all.  I've been contemplating getting MLBlive to catch all my RedSox games, but as far as regular programming, I don't watch as much as most do.  My wife does, but I'm not sure how mush she has to have HD quality for TV viewing either?

I guess my questions would be, would it be a waste to buy a $2500-3000 EDTV 42" plasma now and upgrade in a year or two to an HD set when I want one, or should I at least go HD ready now, for the approx. $1k more or so it will cost for the set?
