So I picked up this TV over the weekend.
Panasonic 42 in. (Diagonal) Class 1080p 600 Hz Plasma HD Television
Got it for $719 (no Tax picked it up in DE) becasue I paid cash for it instead of the no interest deal. For the record the first one I bougth had a huge black line that ran down the center of the screen. So I returned it and I am now waiting for a new one.
Saden1 we will see if your Pansonic holds up, if not I will be the first ot let you know. =)
Also, I sold my broken Phillips to a co-worker for $250, it got into a bit of a bidding war with another co-worker.
