Nice TV
I'm not a TV expert, but I ordered this TV after researching online. Good decision, it is a great TV, with a great picture.
It doesn't have any of the new features like online browsing, and netflix, like some models, but I get all that with my Tivo (and Blu-ray).

Pioneer Kuro Elite Pro-151FD
We had an ancient 11 year old Toshiba 36" Cinema series television that this replaced. I've spent the last couple of years researching and reviewing the new technology offered in today's television sets. These included DLP, Projectors, various flavors of LCD's and Plasma displays. Of course all had pros and cons, warranties and prices. In the end I fell in love with the Pioneer Kuro Elite. I just didn't want to part with $6500 to buy one. When I found out this year that Pioneer was exiting the plasma market I decided to bite the bullet and purchase one before they were no more. I ended up having to buy online from an authorized dealer who basically let me have it for 50% off list price. Even at this price it was still expensive. First impressions after setting it up were WOW!! Colors and black levels were amazing. My sources via HDMI include Sony PS3-Blue Ray, Xbox 360, Netgear EVA 9150 media center and HD Satellite. I use a Denon AV-890 receiver in a 7-1 configuration with Orb-Audio speakers. Our wireless N dual band network provides for great video streaming from many sources including Netflix. It's an awesome display despite the price. My only hope is it lasts as long as the Toshiba. During our 11 years of ownership it never needed one service call. The Kuro does come with a two year warranty and Pioneer has promised to carry parts for 7 years which is a little more comforting.

Stunning Product: Grab One While You Can
The Pioneer Elite Kuro PRO-151FD is arguably the finest television available today. Attach top quality high-definition sources (e.g., Blu-Ray discs, satellite HD), and I promise you'll watch with dropped-jaw at the stunning picture quality. Sound is well above TV-average, but you'll want to pair this amazing set with a high quality surround sound system.

Pioneer is leaving the plasma TV market in search of easier profits. What a shame, as this product truly sets the bar for all other current televisions.

Get one while you can!

Awesome TV!!!
Since Pioneer has decided they will no longer produce TVs, I had to buy this! It is replacing a 5 year old Pioneer plasma that is still in ultimate working condition, but will now be a bedroom TV. The picture quality is unsurpassed by any LCD, LED, or other producer of plasma units. I LOVE Pioneer plasmas!!
