if too expensive, just save more money and buy later. isnt that the norm.
or buy next year..heh. or if you think that the vendor is conning you than buy from other vendor.

just make sure the decision is an informed decision as the senior forummers say..

and while we are arguing blackest, vibrant, etc...why not look on the other side..at what price are these being achieved..

i dunno about tv but reading those suicides in foxcon really stop me thinking on upgrading on electronics stuffs..

i have pretty screwed myself up yesterday and today . my 50" V20 will take delivery this saturday and last night ,i just made full payment for a nice italian design TV cabinet from a highly extravaganza furniture shop near Damansara Heights . only today i realize my present TV cabinet can fit in a 50" set after some dismantling work .

Singapore is getting the same V as they are made there

Hello,I just order the panasonic TH-P50U20K. This model is new in the market so I got special offer..The price is RM4999 plus free gift BLU-RAY disc player..so it is just information to the people who maybe consider to buy 50inch plasma tv.

In fact pretty much whole of Asia and Ocenia (Australia/NZ) is getting the V we are getting.

As far as I know, only Europe has the "real" V since most of the reviews (and hence our references/opinions formed) are from there.

What is the equivalent of this http://panasonic.co.id/web/pid/8635 in malaysia? It seems to be the V10S Europe is getting (since it's got the THX thingy)?

That's a 2009 model. Should be replaced by the 2010 V20 model without THX which is the same situation as in Australia/NZ. That's why some Aussies are now rushing to get the V10s before it goes out of stock since the V10 aesthetics is much better and it has THX certifications. I read some comments from the aussie whirlpool forum.

For 2009, Malaysia offered X10, S10, G10, Z1s and the 65V10. So, the closest match should be the P54Z1S or the 65V10K in Malaysia.

Whirlpool? Really? What's your aura? ;-)

About V20 http://panasonic.co.id/web/productssolutio...v/vieraplasmatv

They seem to offer them along with V10S?

Well ... if you can still find retailers holding left-over stock. Pana site will still advertise it just like in Malaysia but you will be hard-pressed to find a S10 or a G10 unit still in stock.

Most of them would have already sold it off at greatly discounted prices due to incoming new models or replaced it with the 2010 models. If you can find a V10, it may be a good idea to consider it. It looks really great from what I hear and the price is the same as a V20. Of course, you don't get Viera Cast and internet connectivity but they are vastly overrated IMHO

Hmm, I'm actually quite worried about the possibility of someone hacking into my TV - actually, I'm worried about hack on anything connected to the internet. :-)

you really awake me, it really make sense.......

50" V Series TV, in one hall, connected to astro decoder has excellent pic quality, just like showroom quality (haven't got astro beyond yet).

Another 50" V Series TV on another floor has much poorer pic quality as it's connected via a transmitter (Euro Uno brand - also used to change astro channels)

Any method to boost pic quality for 2nd TV?

Bro, Passed by kepong area at tmn usahawan, saw one Pana shop selling 42" V20 for RM4200 + 170 for 5 years warranty. Is it a good price?

do not hessitate on this deal, just buy it.

it is the best deal in town so far.

But im only will be shifting to my new condo in another 1 1/2 month. U think its a wise decision?

I seconded that, nobody can match that price...

Can pls share where you got this?

for those interested in price comparison between here and singapore for th50 v20 , the rrp there is 3,299sgd with very limited stocks .

yes , it's with the same specs we got here . no thx and pro version panel . source is from singapore panny website.

i'm wondering why panny produces so little in quantity for this model size

very cheap considering the GDP per capita is about 5 times more than Malaysia. Average Singaporean earn SGD5000 and above.

So, its less than one month's pay for most Singaporeans

RM6499 is very high. Most wage earners earn RM2000 and below only. Infact statistics show something like 70% of working Malaysians earn RM2000 and below

It should be priced cheaper in Malaysia.

I posted this in the Toshiba ZV600E thread and I hope sifu here can advise me. main use of the TV would be for Astro Byond and later to play MKV file via media player.

I'm thinking of choosing between 47ZV600E and Panasonic TH-P50V20 where both have very good comments from forumers. hence can anyone recommend which one to buy ? I'm neutral to whether it is LCD or Plasma TV.
