Anybody have a pic of the back of this TV or know where to see one? I've only seen just a view of the back input/output panel from the Cnet review video.
I'm thinking about getting this plasma, with a tilt mount. I still haven't decided how each component will be wired and might add components in the future. How hard is it to change out wires with a standard tilt mount? Is it easy, a bitch, or impossible without taking the plasma off the mount?

Thanks. That's the best pic I've seen of it.
Anybody know where these are located on the back? A pain to get to once it's mounted?
No problem. I've installed (hung on the wall) a 50PX700U for a friend of mine a few weeks ago (his wife wants it to be 4" higher now :() Will have to patch holes and re-drill everything :(
The 77U looks to be just like it. The placement of the connections are not very friendly for hanging on the wall, IMO, as all the connectors point toward the wall. The bottom-most connector is about 2-3" above the bottom of the TV, if I recall correctly. If facing the connectors, they are located more to the right side of the TV.
If you have stiff wires, then be prepared to be a little frustrated.
You can always get a couple of friends to help out by dismounting it from the wall while you make the new connections.

Thanks for the input. That's what I needed to know.
I think I'll just go ahead and have all the wires I might need connected before the install, even if they're attached to nothing for the time being.
4" higher? BRUTAL! :(
