Refresh rate is how fast it redraws the screen. 60 is slow for quick action. 120 is good, 240 is probably tops a person would notice, 600 would be advertizing gimic?
Contrast ratings are some magic number that don't relate well from one manufaturer to the next (tey all lie about it....), but is the most noticable 'feature' I see on TV's. It affects how the color black is seen, and if you like sports one way is better, if you like movies in a dark room a different way is better. I'd suggest looking at various models in a store, to get a feel for that contrast rating - what _you_ like, this seemed to be the biggest differences in sets when we were looking, and their is no right singgle answer....

It is sometimes used so well you can't tell its there and other times used as a sloppy quick fix.
