Buyer Beware -- Prices fluctuating wildly on this HD television
This is just a heads up about pricing.
I placed my order for this television on 9/2/2008. THE PRICE from AMAZON with FREE SHIPPING was $2,835.21.
Delivery time quoted, when I placed the order, was 1 to 2 months. UPDATE: Amazon delivered my TV on 9/30/2008 (in about a month) in perfect condition at the price I've quoted ($2,835.21).
Prices are changing day by day. In fact, the day after I placed my order, Amazon raised their price by $500.00. That i...

Comparison shopped, waited & finally bought this on a lark...
This is my first HD flat screen. For months I compared LCD vs Plasma, comparison shopped brands and size. After deciding on the new Panasonic 50" line I took my wife to Best Buy to see the unit I settled on. She made a beeline for the big screen room and for about an hour we sat down and looked at all they had to offer. We settled on this unit - but it was twice the price I had planned to spend. "Buy the big one," she said - so while in the store and using my Blackberry I found this unit on Amaz...

Best performance/value in this size of display!
I did extensive research and in-person viewing of many TVs before deciding to buy this set. For the price, there is no better set out there at this size.
My previous display was a 55 inch HD RPTV - the venerable Mitsubishi Platinum HD display in the big black cabinet. When fully calibrated, the set was gorgeous in 1080i and produced a picture that was still way better than many of the current LCD displays. Of course, it didn't do 720p or 1080p, and off-axis performance was disappoi...

This TV is very crisp and beautiful
I got this TV b/c cnet seemed to rave about it. I had a TH-50PX600U and that was a nice TV and I'm a big panasonic fan, but this TV I can definitely notice an improvement in quality from my cable HD channels, even though both are from the same 720p signal. In addition, watching Blu-Ray from this is beautiful (I'm using a PS3). I'm really happy with the purchase. One recommendation for anyone owning this TV is to use custom settings and not use the settings that are default.

Panasonic Viera TH-58PZ800U is AMAZING!!!
I recently purchased the panasonic th58pz800u from amazon for $3019, which I feel is very reasonable (The price has indeed fluctuated between $2899 and $3799 on amazon during the time I was shopping for it). Once ordered, the television was delivered in 3 business days (I'm in CA). Although the amazon website said it would be delivered "white glove", the delivery persons did not have that information. However, when we let them know that's what we were expecting, they willingly obliged by unpa...

Stunning!
When I first saw this unit on Amazon, it was $3499. After talking to my wife, I placed an order the next day and was surprised to find the price to be $2999. Two days after my order, the price went to $3699 and was no longer being shipped from Vann's. Mine was shipped from Vann's and arrived in perfect condition 4 days later.
Anyway, the TV is wonderful. I can't imagine getting a better picture from a TV. The colors are significantly richer and deeper than our other TV, a Samsu...

reflection from inside can be bothersome
I agree with most of the good reviews about this TV, however, I do need to point out a major annoyance of the TV, which I think is a major design flaw and prevent me from giving it a 5 star instead.
Although overall experience with the TV is positive, I noticed an annoying issue with this unit: it can reflect its own video from inside. This is more apparent if you are watching from side angle and image is contrasty - like white over black (i.e. texts over black background), you can se...

Don't assume anything, ask if you're not sure!!!
Two months ago I bought a 52" LCD TV (not Panasonic) for my family room, so my grand kids could watch TV and play Xbox & Playstation 3 games. The TV was bought directly from Amazon and the shipping was free. When it got to my house over three weeks later, two men deliverd the TV and put it in my family room. They took it out of the box and set it up and pluged it in to make sure everything worked. (It did) They said the white glove service was on all TV's from Amazon. On 08/29/2008 I went t...

nice TV and good delivery
i ordered from buynow.com and paid $2,961 w/free shipping and no tax. i ordered on 8/29 and the TV arrived in one week, which was well inside the promised delivery window. it is a nice TV with excellent picture and good sound. Set up was easy, but i have not yet hooked it to a home theater system. I had been watching panasonic plasma prices for a long time and was surprised to see them discount the 08 so quickly. i agree with the other reviewer that prices are fluctuating a lot for this ite...

Shock & Awe
Look at the picture & forget about the price, other reviews mentioned how much this TV cost, I will not. Why? Because, when your focus is to get the best TV out there the price should comes second. To me, this is the one. I watch this TV from about 13 feet away and have a direct TV DVR receiver connected by monster 1000 HDMI cable. Wow! Here is a double Wow! Get the Panasonic Blue-ray Disc player DMP-BD30 will do and connect it to this TV set by HDMI connection, get the "planet earth" Blue-...
