PC monitor/Monitor for my DSLR? at DVinfo.net

Is there a monitor out there that I can work on (27 inches) that I would use as my PC monitor most of the time but can also connect my 1Dm4 to when I want to use the monitor somewhere around the house? I don't plan on shooting anything outside the house for now but would like to have something bigger than the 3inch display? I also own the Panasonic TH-P42S2 Plasma HDTV and wondered about doing some home videos through that? Anyone familiar with doing something like this?

Most new monitors come with an HDMI input. That TV has HDMI inputs. The 1D Mark IV has a mini HDMI out. Get a mini-HDMI to HDMI cable and you're all set.
