 Great T.V. and Support Sep 03, 2010
This is a great plasma TV, we really like it and for the price its awesome! I don't really know the technical details but it has great color & blacks. We waited over a year for this purchase and are very happy. In addition - do not worry about ordering on line & delivery. We live in a very rural area where shipping can sometimes be a hassle, but this arrived on time (actually early). Unfortunately on arrival there was 2 small dents on the back cover (the TV was functioning great, but I was concerned about possible future problems). I emailed Amazon with problem, they called me within 2-hours and set up an exchange immediately, no hassles, no issues! We now have our replacement and couldn't be happier. AMAZON ROCKS!
Best 2010 Value Aug 30, 2010
I just can't see how anyone could rate this TV with less than 5-stars. You can get more by paying more, but only much more (along with Erok, I defy anyone to suggest a better picture for the same money - I feel a kinship to Erok's story as I also started out looking for an LCD computer monitor for my HDMI PC and was unhappy with the 6-bit color depth producing unnatural colors and poor off angle viewing for affordable Twisted Nematic monitors like the ASUS VE276Q 27-Inch Wide (16:9) 2ms Response Time Display Port LCD Monitor - Black as well as the twice the cost compared to this screen price tags of IPS LCDs like the NEC MultiSync LCD2690W2-BK-SV - LCD display - TFT - 26" - widescreen - 1920 x 1200 / 60 Hz - 320 cd/m2 - 1000:1 - 8 ms - 0.287 mm - DVI-I, DVI-D, VGA - black - with SpectraViewII Color Calibration Solution... I was planning to wait for an LED LCD until I checked out a similar plasma model). Moreover, how useful are the fancy features? As P. Cook says, after a little more effort tweaking the picture, don't we most all currently have a console, streaming player, or old PC? (and, yes, the Panasonic TC-P42G25 42" Class Viera® G25 Series Plasma- FREE HDMI Cable + MP3 Player is a good example of what yet another 2 C-notes could get you... but, so is the Xbox 360 4GB Console, ha ha). Solid image quality (especially stunning black and greyscale performance), not too heavy (for my wall mounting), and far better bang for buck than ANY LCD. I think the speakers are slightly better than most but I use a Yamaha RX-V2700 - AV network receiver - 7.1 channel and five Aperion (dot com) Intimus speakers (why get a HDTV and not spend at least as much on the audio?) with a ASUS Internal 4x Blu-Ray Reader SATA Optical Drive BR-04B2T (Black) in an inexpensive HP PC with a HD tuner, remote, and a BTC 9019URF Wireless Multimedia USB Keyboard w/ Dual Mode Joystick Mouse (this is my bedroom system, costing about the same as just one of my main system's subwoofers). This is 2010's best value TV, and I'm very glad I found it.

 Excellent value for money Aug 23, 2010
Bought this to replace my 32" 720p LCD TV in my bedroom. Very happy with the picture quality. Vierra link works very well with panasonic blu Ray player. Good picture in standard def as well. Not so good sound, but it works for me.
great buy for the money Aug 20, 2010
I am a huge user of Amazon, but it took two weeks after purchase to get the tv using the free shipping. A bit long, but CEVA met all my expectations, unpacking the TV and setting it on the console for me. I did tip them well, so I don't know if that is usual service, but I was very happy with delivery when it finally came.
The TV has a very good, clear picture on TV shows filmed in HD. Not quite as sharp as my 1080p Visio LCD, but very good and I am happy with it. The blu-ray discs on my Panasonic player are simply outstanding in sharpness and clarity with this TV.
All in all I am very, very pleased with the TV!
I did talk to Panasonic about the burn-in issue. Everything I'd read said to keep contrast and brightness <50 for 100-200 hours. The support person at Panasonic said not to worry about it. I did tell him that I would have the TV on 12 hours a day every few days and he said that didn't matter. Hope he's right!
Amazing for the price Aug 19, 2010
This is a great 1080P plasma screen for the dollar. I was looking for an HDTV that could measure up to my 1080P HD professional 3 chip camcorder. I wanted plasma, but many of these are still 720P.....or quite expensive. The colors are very accurate and nuanced, blacks are deep and holds multiple shades.
While you get a very high-end screen, you dont get wifi capabilities, however why would you spend the xtra money to have you TV wireless when this can be accomplished far cheaper by your bluray player or even playstation 3 among others. Here you dollar goes to picture quality. Build in speakers are as always nothing to write home about, but nevertheless decent.
I use this with panasonics DMP-BD85K blu-ray player that takes care of the wireless part while delivering a class leading picture signal.

Consumer Reports Says: Buy HDTV at Amazon!
Washington, D.C. (July 2010) -- When it comes to price, Consumer Reports says shoppers are most likely to find the best deals online. And the publication called three ecommerce sites "standouts" in this year's Consumer Reports ratings of electronics stores: Amazon.com, Crutchfield.com and B&H (bhphotovideo.com)
The magazine's survey was based on more than 38,000 purchases of electronics, including flat-screen TVs, between January 2009 and June 2010. The report indicated that online stores consistently offered better prices. (The magazine's full report can be found in its July 2010 issue.)
"Buying online can be better," the magazine said in a press release. "The higher-rated electronics retailers in Consumer Reports annual reader survey are Web sites. Readers who bought online rated their overall satisfaction at 90 out of 100 -- higher than those who bought in a store. Additionally, many Web merchants offer free shipping, even on TVs, which could spare the hassle of struggling to fit a bulky carton in the car or paying a local store for delivery."
Consumer Reports said that while no single retailer scored excellent in all shopping categories, Amazon.com came closest.
