Date: 2008-08-26 A great 1080P plasma at minimal cost I ordered this product through Amazon.com on the 18th of August. It was shipped on the 19th with an August 26th estimated delivery date. I was more than surprised to find that this product was actually to be delivered on the 23rd, and on a Saturday to boot. First off-- the picture is beyond comparison for what I spent for this model. The unit does not give off much heat (as long as you are not in a closed room with no air circulation); as the addition of four low rpm exhaust fans on the top of the plasma keep it cool without additional noise. Secondly-- I would highly recommend the use of blue ray discs through an additional PS3. The smooth scaling from the PlayStation to the plasma is just phenomenal! I did my research on many brands of plasma hd tvs, and I have to honestly say that this is a purchase I won't regret. In addition, with a unit running this cool, and with an estimated 11 year 24/7 365 days/yr running time until the TV loses half its brightness, I believe I won't have trouble finding a buyer for this unit if I ever choose to upgrade. Lastly-- This unit can easily detect any HDMI device and conform to its specifications in short time. I find it easy to switch display and audio from my PS3 to my laptop and not lose a second in between. I highly recommend this product, and duly urge any potential consumer to do their due diligence before any product purchase. If this model is your choice, utilize Amazon.com and not a local brick and mortar store. The free shipping saves you gas, and the 'white glove' service will both setup and verify your plasma's integrity. Best of luck in your quest for an ideal plasma 1080P TV! Date: 2008-08-06 Excellent except for remote control I purchased this Plasma on Amazon and am very pleased with it. The picture is wonderful even with regular cable. I also purchased the panasonic blue ray, and the picture is amazing. My only complaint is with the TV remote. It has no range!!! You must point it DIRECTLY at the TV for it to work, and cannot be more than 5-6 ft away. Otherwise the remote is fine. Will try new batteries since I used the ones that came with the set and they could be old or almost dead, but I have read other reviews that also complain about the remote....YOU MUST point it directly at the set for it to function. Date: 2008-07-10 Panasonic Viera TH-42PZ800U 42-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV Panasonic has done a fine job on this one. I was told that the LCD was better that plasma. I find it hard to believe that anything could look better that this. I was impressed with the ease of putting it together when it arrived. I had it in the cabinet within 15 minutes after opening the carton. The picture is good in standard mode and that is where most of our viewing takes place. Normal local channels on cable do not really show what the TV is capable of showing. HD channels start to bring our how good it really looks. When I turn on my PS3 and bring up MotorStorm in Vivid mode, the Mountains look real. The picture is so real that it will take your breath away. I have not run across anything that I would consider to be a negative other that the price. But, sometimes it costs a little more to go "First Class". Date: 2008-07-07 Excellent Product This is my first Big Screen TV Purchase. I did a lot of research whether to buy plasms or LCD finally went for Plasma. Finally wanted the best industry brand feel panasonic dont have any competition in Plasma the picture quality is outstanding. When i saw Spiderman 3 on bluray i thought whether video quality can be so amazing. I give 101 marks from 100 to this tv awesome. the only thing they miss is vierrcast which they have in 850 series models. But for this price this is the best tv i prefer. Date: 2008-07-05 Clarity and Quality I am fully satisfied with My Panasonic Viera HDTV..Absolute Brilliance and Sharpness are amazing. The best TV i have ever owned. You can trust Panasonic as a brand..i owned 2 previous with no trouble. Do yourself a favor go buy one of these...and dump that insipid TV that is in the living room...you will be glad you did :)
