OK...after many banging of my head against the wall, final went with TH-P50V20K.

SO far no regrets and took extended warranty as well.

Are you sure with V model or VT model?

Because my sales guy didnt mention any promotional DVD?

The difference right now is about RM1300-RM1500. Hence the gap between the cost is coming much closer.

I went with V mainly because of :-

contrast ratio 5,000,000:1
resolution: 1080 lines
USB/wifi

If the above is not important, U would be best value for money!

Thats true, and I felt the same when compared between U and V as well. I know its all confusing, but if you have the cash budget for RM5K then go with V else settle with U. Just my POV.

In terms of technicality anfieldude had advised well.

BTW is your TV any closer to magnetic thingy, like speaker, etc?

I do change around at times, but mostly on as below:-
model: 50V
viewing mode: True Cinema
contrast: 55
brightness: 10
color: 50
sharpness: 45
tint:
color balance:
color management:
eco mode: Off
PNR: Min

I dont think watching 3D all the time is healthy, but once in a while for certain movies...oklah

The TV mode can be switched to 2D as well....

BTW, had anyone successfully connected via wifi on the V series. May I know which branch of adapter are you using?

Currently I have only SMC, and Panny doesnt recognize it

From what I read netgear is certified, but wondering if you had tried any other brand; successful or otherwise...

Thanks

I thought most of the shop do carry it now....hmmmm there are many who sells here at the forum with great price. If not mistaken its around RM5300 now.

Hmm it should be both....any specific thingy that you are looking for?

its just my POV...if you lean towards vivid picture where its ultra clear then go with LED/LCD, else for more natural and soft and clean coloring, then Plasma is for you..

Why dont vist Panny website see what you like and then post questions here...amacam?

Those are US products my friend...visit here http://www.panasonic.com.my/web/products/P...p.asp?CatId=552

I dont see it as very reflective...I could only see the reflection when I turn off the TV, else while playing its fine, and mine too beside window.

I ddint try on SDcard but on USB it is fine

very happy except for the wifi, where only certain model works it seems...not so keen to get one now....thinking out loud different ways

maybe get a second wifi router and place it near the TV? hmmm

whats the current format of the sdcard? I would keep it as fat32

Probably thats with a package, like bluray, etc?

How old is your plasma, it should under warranty too, right? Have you check with Panny support? Macam many boleh koyak huh?
