Amazon has a great article that gives the perfect overview of Plasma vs. HDTV:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/richpub/syltguides/fullview/R2536OUCJB58HO
If you go for a Plasma, check out the 42-inch Samsung deal below.  It's on sale for under $700--with FREE shipping.  If you opt of HDTV, the Westinghouse I have linked can be had for under $525.  Either way, enjoy your new TV!

Great Question, and so many people will tell you so many different answers. But here is the true answer: HDTVs contain an HD tuner allowing you to receive high definition, for example from your house antenna's over the air signal reception.

HD_READY TVs contain everything necessary to display high definition except that HD tuner. To display high definition, you need a separate high definition tuner box (ca. $50-70 and up+) or cable (or other service) which provides a high definition digital cable box which does the tuning for high definition for you. Let me know if you need more clarification, but I think this will cover it! I have selected for your 3 HDTV's for you!
