    Panasonic's TH-42PD25U/P

    Panasonic's TH-42PD25U/P plasma television was the most sought-after advanced television set on holiday wish lists last year, according to CNET rankings. If analysts are right, this and other sets could be a lot cheaper this year. Some observers estimate that costs for certain models could be down as much as 41 percent from last year by the holidays.
