The important thing is not about being elite or noob.

The most important thing is if a company as big as Panny can truly deliver more that Pioneer ever could.

Panny used to put out the best screens out there till 2007. They have slacked. Hope they get their act together else they will also wash away with the LCD revolution.

Also, if u do not see the difference and u r happy with ur entry level set, why worry about wanting a better set. Its elite as long as the owner is happy with the product.

Having a Kuro and not being able to appreciate that is better but merely feeling that he/she has the best set is really not important.

Thats the point I am making.

I have got calls to calibrate Kuros, but the person uses it to watch pirated DVDs and low res stuff. Why buy one for that?
Panny has better people at management, thats why they are so big. Pio was badly managed and they have gone bust in the display industry. They made a big mistake of buying a wrong plant and backing it.

My point is Panasonic needs to pull up its socks and improve, get back to being the leader they once was. The strong fight put out by the LCD camp cannot be ignored.

tho i'm no expert, at least i can still see the clear difference of Kuro vs rest of the lineup....it really gives you the + effect...but getting them to watch pirated dvds...hrrmm..that guy must be filthy rich but dunno how to appreciate what he's got...

as usual bro anfield, you always comes up with real sensible explanations...i really tabik you

they are probably releasing less ideal displays to fend off LCD competitions...creating consumer awareness of plasma & letting them know plasma tv's are just as affordable as LCDs with their entry level plasma TVs....as well as keep stating plasma is a better display compared to LCD, which i totally agree....

Little info about Panasonic VT25 from CNet:

We asked Panasonic's rep whether the the new TVs, like the current V10 series, would include a 96Hz refresh rate, to better display native 1080p/24 content. We were told that the VT25 would have a 96Hz option, but that the new G25 and G20 models would have the same flicker-prone 48Hz refresh rate option found on the current G10 models. See the review of the Panasonic TC-PG10 series for details.

Millions thank to all...
Very2 good input.....
