re: The TV Thread - LCD, Plasma, LED etc. Hi everybody,
I have been shopping for big screen TV for an unbelievable 4 years. Whenever I zero down to a model of my choice, I either step over my budget or there is a new kid in the block, so the search engine starts over again.
But now after 4.8 months of search, the budget hasn't gone up accordingly but my expectation have definitely gone up and they have been better for the last 2 months.\
I am not looking at the Panasonic VIERA TH-P42U30D and trust me I love the way it looks and it is a very elegant looking display unit.

I really think this one's a value for money deal, but ...
I never had a chance to see one of these in action but according to the reviews on the internet, everybody says it is something really nice.
I would love to hear about this from our members if someone has this one under their ownership as I feel it will be a "real world" experience than by going over some opinions that are there in the internet.
