After reading reviews I was convinced that this was a great TV. So, I bought one from Amazon, and I got after 2 weeks. However, the TV screen was broken, so Amazon sent a replacement, and after one more week, I received the TV…with the screen broken AGAIN! So, I’m not sure if this is a problem with the TV, with the packaging or the company who delivery the Amazon items (CEVA). Whatever is the case, I have the feeling that the TV is really fragile, and you will have to be really careful if you want to move this around.
My next move? I will buy a LCD from another brand (Sony, Samsung, etc.)

volume control on external speakers is fixed.. chat help with tech rep was no help. volume only controls unit’s volume not external receiver and speakers. audio w/fiber optic installed correct. have to use another remote to control volume which is a pain….

I recently purchased this TV in Nov 2008. Beware this TV cannot accept S-Video or HDMI from PCS, It is not friendly to connect with PCs like LCD TV, the Picture clarity is not that great when comparing other little expensive SONY LCD Models or samsung’s in overall it is not a great buy and experience buying from Amazon

We bought this set 5 months ago. At first, picture was really great. But after 4 months of use, a blue-green vertical stripe appeared at the left side of the screen. I have contacted Panasonic, and they said there was a TV NORM problem (since I bought it in the states, but moved to a PAL-N country and that I should pay for fixing it up, because the warranty was void, for being “out of zone”. The answer is ridiculous. Both about the problem and about the solution, since we have a Panasonic representant in our country. Noneless to say, is not easy to move a 42″ TV set. I bought it because the price was nice. But now I am very regretfull on having bought this brand. Conduct a search on “Panasonic Plasma stripe problem”. You will see I am not the only one. And Panasonic, instead of recognizing the problem, tried to avoid their responsability saying there was a norm problem… Good luck with yours.
