Not my specialist subject, but the common consensus at the moment could well be one of the Pioneer Plasma TV's, combined with the Humax HDCI2000 Set Top Box.

If I had the money, that's probably what I'd buy.

I would go for the Panasonic PHD9 panel with a separate receiver. My tongue is hanging out for the Dreambox 8000.

I would only search around like you no doubt will. I've not been seriously keeping track of prices.
I'm not particularly flush at the moment, so it's like the old saying goes - if you have to ask how much it is, you can't afford it ops:
