My shop just upgraded our Avids to the DNxcel boards and now we need to get some HD out put monitors. I'm leaning towards the panasonics, but thought I'd check to see if anyone had any recommendations.
 
I'd keep your old ntsc compnant monitors for you and just add a big flat screen for the client. Cheapest way by far and clients dig the pimpness.
I use a 54" rear projection big screen tv for this. Use to use a 42" plasma.
I still just used my old broadcast componant monitor. It;'s god, the other is just to get the client from over my shoulder.
 
Prices range wildly depending on how fat your wallet is and how picky you can afford to be (4K - 55K). I went with JVC's 24" DT-V24L1DU. Its been fantastic for our HD work for broadcast. When I first heard about it I said "JVC???" Trust me, you owe it to yourself to have a look at it if you can afford 6K. Its just as good as the overpriced ecinemas at 4 times the price.
