Why do most of the Pioneers at BB have IR/burn-in and none of the Panasonics do? I've been to 2 different BB's and in both cases at least 50% of the Pioneers (42, 50, 60's) have IR/burn-in from the stores video loop. I've seen it on the Samsungs too and the damn pixel shift function was even active. In all cases it is the same image that is retained. None of the Panasonics displayed any of this. It begs the question, what does Panasonic do differently than the others to avoid or suppress IR/burn-in? I'll be visiting a 3rd store today and will report what I see.
For the last week I've been struggling with the decision of ordering the Panny or Pioneer and then this comes up. I do game (maybe 2 hours/sitting) so it is a potential concern. I've always been a skeptic of the whole IR/burn-in issue. I've seen burn-in on older plasmas that have been hanging in bars showing the same station for 3-4 years, but I've always reserved judgement on the new panels.
Any thoughts?
