I wouldn't have been able to judge picture quality of TVs I looked at in B&M stores based on how they were set up for display when I was shopping this past summer. Aren't they all blaring their brightest, most saturated and contrasty settings in stores? Everything looked crappy to me in the stores I visited. I found user reviews on websites like Amazon to be much more useful in making a decision, but looking in stores was useful in judging the actual size, design and ergonomic details of TVs.
Picture quality can be adjusted with the remote and whatever on-screen menus it invokes--it took a bit of exploration to get my Samsung tweaked to my liking. I would examine the comments here about this Panasonic model http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0036VO7WM and elsewhere on the web if you need reassurance about picture quality and other details.
