Amazon and Panasonic Deliver! I was one of the folks who jumped on the "pre-order" sale back in early spring, before Panny was actually shipping product. I had narrowly missed the amazing Panasonic Plasma/Blu-Ray deal a few weeks earlier, so I was determined not to miss out. As soon as I saw the price I jumped.
First things first: as many others have reported it was not until late May before Amazon received units from Panasonic. Nonethless, I am happy to report that after "confirming" my order and agreeing to the ...

TH-50PZ800U - review from an engineer's perspective
Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ800U 50-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV
June 28, 2008
Owned for 45 days
PICTURE QUALITY
I can not say anything negative about the picture quality... it's a ten for today's technology.
SOUND
I dealt with a Panasonic rep when I made a deal on the 800U and he indicated that the sound was superior to the PH-50PX60U I already had... yeah, it's a tad better but not by much. My 14 year old Sony KV-27HFR tuber still blows them awa...

Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ800U KURO KILLER I had high expectations when I bought this Panasonic. After reading about every possible candidate plasma & LCD, I took the plunge on this newly released 800U. It exceeded my expectations and they were pretty high expectations. This has a great picture, great color and is totally adjustable - both with preset options or manually. I can't imagine ANYONE not being impressed by this set and its reasonable pricing compared to the Pioneer Kuro (the only other plasma that is even close to this perform...

Finally have one! Worth the wait!!! Finally recieved this TV this week, and man was it worth the wait.
But let me make this simple. Lets ignore that it is rating the one of the top 2 plasmas in the world (yet again), and lets ignore all the other TV's with different bragging rights for whatever features for the moment and call it all equal.
What truely sets this unit aside is its new frame design. No other TV on the market (YET) has an all glass front surface and is nearly FRAMELESS.
Thats right, ...

Top Rated with a Low Price - this is a 2008 model On April 2, 2008 Amazon first offered this high end 50" 2008 Panasonic at $2499.95 with free delivery. Within weeks, Amazon jumped the price up to $3,199.99 which was the list price at the time. On May 4, Amazon dropped the price to $2,819.96 with free shipping. Since then the LIST price was lowered by Panasonic to $3000. As of August (2008) Amazon has been selling this set for between $2200 and $2300. Panasonic lowered the LIST price again in August to $2500. Prices are now around $2000.00 in m...

5 stars out of 100 for their poor customer service. Amazon, not Vanns. Long time customer here. I ordered this television on the 1st of April for 2499. I was ok with the delay because it would coincide with the end of escrow on my new place. A few days ago I saw that though it was in stock, it was not shipped so I changed the shipping address to my new condo. Today they email me saying my account was closed because their investigators thought a third party may have used my account to purchase the tv. They couldn't call me before closing my account? I replied...

Check out the price I don't know if it's an Amazon mistake, but they are listing the price at $2499 with free shipping. That's well below the $3199 list price that this new product will command. It must be a mistake, but I placed an order at the artificially LOW price and their stated policy is to honor it.
