Only one question remains, will plasma last that long to find out? If Panasonic pulls the plug, its the end...I dread thinking of that day.

True....its all back to the fundamentals of dollar and cents i.e. does it make economic sense for Panasonic to maintain the plasma lines. In any case, some times, business is not strictly about dollar and "sense". Panasonic may choose to maintain it for market presence purposes. Oh well....que sera sera, whatever will be, will be.....

Well, actually the LED TV is just using LED for each pixel to display or LED use as the backlight only? anyone can clarify for this one?

As explained earlier by bro ar188, the current LED TVs are backlit only....white (sammy) or RGB (sony)

the actual LED based panel is the one uses one R one G one B LED for one pixel (or more LED per pixel) .. they can be found on top of stadiums and buildings. that is LED TV/LED monitor

but some marketing fellas start calling LCD TVs as LED TVs cos they use LEDs as backlight function, not as a visual pixel element on the panel...
so the consumer LED TV is not really LED TV..

And it (gimmcik) works pretty well, right?

If really pure LED tv, I don't think the price tag is as 'cheap' as now

sure la.. RGB LEDs is already > RM1 per pixel point..

if HDTV rez with 2 mil pixels (1920x1080) ... = million dollar TV..

Boss, but some ppl still trying to argue that it is indeed LED TV. So, I just leave it to them. No point arguing with them since they are buying it anyway. Why argue with 'money'? LOL....

what to do... SH mah.. cos liddat all our mobile phone's are all LED screen also since they use LED backlight over LCD panel..
all new LEd backlight PC monitor and laptop also should called LED display.. macam macam ada...

Should I get Sharp Aquos 46a77 or Toshiba Regza 46x3500e for new house?

I am not buying 50s10 because of reflection. My living room downlight very bright.

i think sharp will be better as sharp's panel is made in japan.. and its quality is good...

toshiba i heard that their panel is made in indonesia? not so sure...

Get the Toshiba and regret later...lousy quality

how much is samsung 32" led tv UA32B6000 ? is it worth buying?

My local electrical shop quote me Sharp Aquos 46A77 for RM5700

worth buying?

Go for Sharp

panny's Plasma TVs are still selling quite well right? dun see why they should pull the plugs...if anyone shud, it will be sammy...not saying sammy's plasma tv is bad, just i think the market share of plasma tv is lead by panny...in contrast, not too sure, but i think panny's LCD line aint that popular...so all the more reason for them to maintain Plasma tv production....

and, i did remember reading sumwhere, Pioneer will source plasma panels from panny in future am i right? does it mean pioneer will still come out with Kuro's? or its dead completely?

Kuro is still the Plasma TV to beat...if its not for the outrageous price tag on a FHD Kuro....


errrr...downlight can be switched off right? why not install light dimmer? watch movie with full lights dun give the kick la...must be dark & dimmed...then only got cinema feel marrr...
