Hi guys-
I picked it up Friday. I went with the ED 42" Panasonic.
My wife honestly would have gone for the HD if it had been
important to me, but half again the money for the higher rez
really makes no sense. If all goes HD (again, I don't much care
about broadcast) then spending $3700 verses $5700 leaves me $2K
down the road to apply toward a newer model. A 50" doesn't even
hit my radar screen, they haven't come down enough in price yet.
This is, after all, just TV.My only real complaint is the non-ability to switch between
S-vid and composite on the 1st inputs. When you plug in the S-vid
it defaults to it, but has only one set of audio inputs. *sigh*
From an engineering standpoint, the picture is a bit soft. But color
temp and phase seem about right, and we view from about 9 feet
away, so I don't constantly look at the pixels. By the way, this
set is going back- it popped 6 pixels today. I was expecting
a pretty heavy failure rate as is the rate with all manufacturers
plasmas, but it only went 3 days. Doh! I have one on hold
to swap it with, but it is a pain in the buttocks. Hi-ho, hi-ho,
back to the store we go...Thanks again for everyones help.
