I personally wouldn't be too worried. So long as you're vigilant and don't, say,  leave the Wii switched on at a menu screen for a long time, it shouldn't be a problem. Probably best to turn on the Wii's screen burn-in reducton feature. It really needs a stationary image for a long time to suffer screen burn in (eg channel logos).

 Yes screen burn in is a problem with earlier plasmas, but if you're careful you should be ok. You could always get a small (26in?) LCD for playing the Wii, if you get concerned about your BV 5 suffering burn in. I'm planning on getting a BV 8 which will have my Wii connected, and as far as I know, LCD's dont suffer burn in, so that may be a better option.

hello robert

thanks for the reply, its pretty much what i had heard already, have activated the wii safety burn-in feature and the kids are loving it already

 cheers, hughie

don't forget to use component cables if at all possible , that sharpens up the wii's picture quite a bit and improves the colour handling

maybe add a ps3 while you're at it - your kids would love rachet and clank , believe me ! :) it'll also look staggering on a superb tv like th 5

So long as the kids know not to leave the Wii turned on and the BV 5 turned on, you'll be ok. Great console isn't it, I have so much fun playing it. My brothers both have XBOX 360's, which are also very good, but I prefer my Wii.

Enjoy your Wii/BV 5 combo,

Robert.
