Not a videophile but did a lot of shopping Not a videophile but did a lot of shopping and looking. It is my honest opinion that if you shop around and find this TV for around the $1K price(or less w/shipping) that you can not get a better TV for that price. With Christmas around the corner it's hard to say what will happen with the price, but I think it will be some time before you will see this significantly lower. I find the picture quality to be just outstanding, the anti-glare coating effective (I see none), the menu is adequate a...

Best TV I've ever bought! I've had my eye on this TV for about 6 months partly because of the reviews that I have read on Amazon about this and all of the other Panasonic Palsma TVs.

I was concerned about the fact that this TV was a somewhat "used item" particularly because of all that I have read about proper break in procedures. I took a chance and bought the TV. I can't believe... [Read Finite Guy's Complete Review for Panasonic 42" Plasma TV (TH42PX77U) at Amazon.com] |
