Don't have time to check reviews for that one at amazon or cnet or if that's the best price, but sometimes it's worth paying more at quality site like that than to get in trouble with a bad site elsewhere. And OneCall has a sale on the weekend with usually 10 random tvs getting a great price.
EDIT: Seems to get a pretty high review http://reviews.cnet.com/flat-panel-and-plasma/panasonic-th-50px77u/4505-6482_7-32317316.html?tag=prod.txt.1
Ignore the prices in the above link, any site with a lower price than Vanns you'd be crazy to deal with.
The ANTI glare screen on this one seems a big plus for plasma, as most plasmas being glass they reflect like crazy compared to LCDs. And the deep black levels sound nice too.
Also check out AVSForum.com to find out more first hand use of any tv you might be thinking of.
