i bought it from an electrical store in sarikei..... sarawak.... so cheap..... they even sell the  42X10k for around RM2600!!!!

there's one salesman from another store (selling lcd tv) said that the plasma technology is outdated already..... and are being phased out....and have to clear stock...that's why all the plasma are cheap nowdays... he also said that the future of tv will be based on LCD.

i don't give a damn of what he said... LOL tongue.gif 

where else can you get a 42" full hd for less than RM3000 right????? PANASONIC somemore....

40"LCD full hd.... HA!!! that's gonna cost RM1K more than my baby 42S10K.......  and I think it's not worth it...

Panasonic are bringing in the new Z and V series 50inch+, so I won't buy any sales personal talk of Plasma outdated/phrasing out anytime soon.

Nevertheless, Sarawak has great prices. thumbup.gif

woot, i just joined this family...gonna install the tv tonite

sorry for being a noob, now i got a question wut is the cable use to output video from computer to the plasma? is there any cable got 2 output like 1 to the monitor and another 1 to the plasma? thx smile.gif

Welcome yslysl,

You want a DVI-HDMI cable. The DVI output is connected to the PC and HDMI connects to the TV. I got my cable in Low Yat Plaza @ Sri Computers.

If you want to hook up to both monitor and tv, make sure your Graphic Card has two or more output slots. Decent graphic cards have 2 DVI outputs.

Snap a picture of the outputs in your graphic card and post it here.

Just now went to HSL Circuit City and in Panasonic section, I saw them display fours units of Plasma and all 42 inch. But all four units are different models. G10K, S10K, X10K and C10K.

You know what I saw? All Plasma set the colour correctly except S10K.  Seem like one of the colour is missing from S10K model.  I am wondering what is HSL up to... hmm.gif

The funny thing is selling price. S10K RM3,999 cash and carry and G10K RM6,399 cash and carry.  laugh.gif  With such a lousy colour for S10K still dare to sell at RM3,999 with cash and carry... doh.gif

RM3999 for S10K demo set?

doh.gif sweat.gif now i'm in dilemma... which one to get sad.gif

Panasonic Viera TX-42LZ80MK (LCD TV) or Panasonic Viera TH-P42S10K (Plasma TV)

which one should i get? Plasma or LCD? this is actually for my old man back at Seremban blush.gif

I presume your dad uses it for Astro and movie watching. I'll say Plasma. If LCD was the same price as Plasma, I would very likely to get the LCD.

I bought it on october 2005...i guess is old  sweat.gif
anyway the model is radeon x800 series i think... hmm.gif

woot, forgot to mention, Panasonic came and changed my plasma already today...
hope it is new as it looks smile.gif

Good to hear that the problem is solved. Old graphic card can't handle 50/60Mhz refresh rate, that's something new to me.

You'll probably need to get a new graphic card. I got a very good mid-range graphic card Sept last year but I still see screen tearing while playing the newest FPS games @ max setting (minus AA) on 1980x1020 res.

Likewise. I got mine RM2999 without HDMI cable, 3 years warranty.

b4 this offer given, i went to Cxx & Sxx, they offer less then 3900 for this set....
anyway.. since get it no regret looo... hope to get back the 500K $$$ for while this rank & win contest laaaa  icon_rolleyes.gif

while "testing" the TV, its normall due to not 100% perfect of poor reception for my area (without astro connection);
however, DVD movies was normall with "normall dvd player",  if 1 to clear, means hv to buy BD player or HDMI player with connected HDMI cable?????

How nice the picture quality comes out depends on your source. I download Full HD demo (those showed in the electrical shops) and they kick @ss.

hi bro.. can you pm me te link to down the FHD demo movie? thx

I think it'll help anyone interested. Here's the link:
http://www.demo-world.eu/trailers/high-def...on-trailers.php

Get the JVC's A Time In Marche and Pioneer's The Kuro Experience. I didn't test all, so if there's really nice ones, let me know too.

Simple 'Print Screen' from the JVC demo (doesn't do the demo justice).

if you look back at the older treads, regulars have commented that x10 = x18, just that the designated no. is different, maybe cos x18 sounds more auspicious, esp in cantonese "yat fatt"

I remember reading the same from older thread here, before I went out to check out the plasma tvs.

Checkout today's TheStar, Pana's full page "promo" advert on S and X series with revised pricing and packages,

TH-P50X10K + TH-L328K + HDMI = rm5,999
TH-P42X10K + TH-L328K + HDMI = rm4,299

TH-P50X10K + BD60 + HDMI = rm5,999
TH-P42X10K + BD60 + HDMI = rm3,999

that's the X series. How about S series?
