I jumped on the flat screen wagon in 2004. After buying a Hyundi plasma to start (42 inch £1000) I moved to Panasonic after 1 year. I will never buy another brand I have had the px60/70/80 and all have been fantastic tvs (the px60 did suffer somewhat from image retention) It is nice to know that Panasonic have never made a bad plasma. I really cant fault there build quality /price /performance. Before I buy I always check reviews (from buyers) and Panasonic most always come out top. I am now looking to go to 50 inch and I dont doubt I will be looking at another Panasonic (plasma) If it was not for the light seepage issues of lcd I would try them. But as the old saying goes stick with what you know. I hope this review has been of some help.
