The Toshiba Regza 42ZV650U ($1299 MSRP) is designed to be a television for enthusiasts that's also inexpensive for those on a budget. The Toshiba 42ZV650U, a 42-inch LCD, is jam-packed with special features for tweaking color, motion, and processing. Most of these features can do more damage than good, but tech heads will enjoy creating the elusive "perfect setting." 

The Sony KDL-46EX700 is the first of the 2010 models we've gotten in, and if it's any indication, this is going to be a good year for HDTVs. It's not that the KDL-46EX700 offers that much more than its predecessors, and it isn't nearly as feature-packed as some of the other TVs we saw at CES, but it does boast  solid improvements in almost every area.

The KDL-46EX700 is currently available for about $1700.

The LG 50PQ30 is an entry-level plasma with a 50-inch screen and 1080p resolution. Even though it's a lower end set, the 50PQ30 got some decent test scores. While the TV is very light on the features, it's incredibly inexpensive for its size: $798.99.
