Newegg has Viera 50" for $1499 (TH50PZ85U). The only diff between it and much more expensive version is THX - shit from Lucas film that in my opinion is not worth nowhere near $500 (and you're not going to use it anyway since you're buying kick ass AV, right?)
Anyway, when I was shopping for a flat screen this fall I decided that Kuro was very much overpriced. Went for Viera. So far so good. ;-)
re: upconversion - If you're buying AV with upconversion why do you also need a blue ray with DVD upconversion?
