plasma tv calabration

ok so i have the new 50" plasma hooked up,its connected to a 7.1 channel reciever with 7 speakers and a sub , bell expressvu HD pvr , the TV is 1080p and the reciever upconverts to 1080p also,i also have a sony bluray player that upconverts to 1080p. so my question is , has anyone used a DVD calabration package to fine tune the picture...its great already but i know it can be improved , so should i get a guy to come here or get the DVD and do it myself?

Lettin the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin it back in.

Most of the stuff people worry about ain't gonna happen anyway.

wd, personally i'd ask at bestbuy how hard it is to do, etc... they are usually a little more honest than most, they don't work on commission and it wont really benefit them to tell you one way or the other.
