hi.. thought pioneer withdraw plasma coz it cost them so much to make.. it is tough fighting against the cheaper lcd/led/oled.. once read pioneer will come into the led/oled category.. thus its decisioin to withdraw..

guess have to see by yourself the pioneer kuro's plasma against the lcd/led/oled tv out there before you decide which is better..

more $ in marketing means higher price, not necessarily higher quality.. sometimes, its good that good quality product are on the quiet but priced right.. good for people who do their research.. but i do agree, its a shame to lose pioneer's in the plasmaTV industry..

around 12k.. 3 places offered around that price.. location in ss2, desaparkcity & kompleks desa.. went with kompleks desa as their price was the lowest and they included installation (had to remove my 42" and adjust the stand and put in the kuro) and a free hdmi cable..

funny.. from my reviews here in LYN, desaHT had a questionable reputation.. quite a bit negative review.. myself was let down by their sales service in DesaHT lowyat.. BUT was lucky met this good sales guy in Mr Chin.. end up buying 2 tacima & 2 JVC bluray player from him.. didnt really need it but felt he gave me a really good deal.. also, first time when morning delivery, insisted they deliver by 11am & the truck was in front of my door at 10.45am.. recommended to deal with this guy..

and oh ya.. he offered a good deal for 508XG oso.. PM me if you wanna know..

yeah, noticed that.. HOWEVER, non of the outlets i've been to carry the krp500m.. only have the krp500a.. all my sifus here oredi told me that i shd consult you to calibrate & fine-tune the kuro.. can we arrange for a date soon? how much for your specialist advise?

ya boss.. thats what i thought oso.. frankly been wishing of a kuro since i saw mypw's 508xg.. now that pioneer confirmed their exit, had to get mine before stock is finished.. but then again, dont think there's many out there like me.. so chances of kuro becoming a collectible is very unlikely.. possible but unlikely.. (note: yet i've always wondered why you never see a user used 2nd hand kuro in the market, only openbox/display set only.. i know i'll never sell my kuro..)
