was looking for a 42" fullHD plasma, was hoping they'll bring in S20 series

but crap... no new S20 for M'sia market, V series will be too expensive for me I guess...

I guess I'll settle for the old S10 then, time to squeeze my supplier for cheaper S10 (last he quoted me 2.5k b4 the announcement of the new viera line) tongue.gif

bro, i m looking for the older s10k or g10k model too..

If the 42S10 is around RM2.5K better grab it immediately. 

Saw in Jaya Jusco One Utama P.J. about 2 weeks ago selling for RM3,999.00 with 10% discount. At that time got 6 units left.

Bought mine in December last year for RM3,050.00

Thanks

By now my S10K bought in December last year I think have hit the 1,000 hours mark.  I have no problem whatsoever with the issue concerned. 

I think lot of people are to obsessed with the issue & maybe a lot of them are also perfectionist too.

Just enjoy whatever you have purchased.

Thanks

so far, i cant find any plasma s10k.

only found the LCD s10k.

now looking elsewhere too.. if forumer here have contact, please pm me ya.

thanks smile.gif

oh btw., the neo PDP g10k vs tis s10k.

is there like really alot of difference?? cos normally i see them playing the football comparison. the ball is like clearer and crisp, compared to the rest which is abit blurry sweat.gif

not sure if tis is a marketing gimmick tongue.gif

No 10% discount?  Somebody better grab it.

Little bird told me there will not be a replacement model for the FullHD TH-P42S10K, in fact for the whole S series for 2010. 

The only FullHD 42" model for 2010 will be the P42V20K with enhanced features (NeoPDP panel, etc) & will cost about RM5K & will be out end of next month.

Thanks

nope. no discount @ jusco.

THP42S10K FOR RM 3,999 ; JUSCO

spotted the THP42G10K FOR RM 4,699 with freebies. tongue.gif at harvey norman.

display unit @ RM 4,100

ehm.. itching de..

I am glad to hear you are very happy with your TV.  Hope you will enjoy it to the fullest.

I am using the P42S10K bought in Dec 2009.  What I did was to set the brightness & contrast settings to 50 with eco mode off & watch whatever with these settings for the first 200 hours. 

Exceeded 1000 hours already.  So far no IR/Burn-In problem whatsoever. And also no deterioration in black level whatsoever.  Black is as black as it can be.  After watching for the day, will "wash" the screen for 30 mins (timer set) & to auto shut off.

Thanks

yipa yipa.. i finally got my 42" plasma tv too tongue.gif sweat.gif

decided to get the full hd THP42G10K series.

mebbe i m gonna try using the 50 brightness & contrast setting n eco mode off for 200 hrs.

btw; jitbeng, washing of the screen = running the full 1080p solid color scheme loop???

# Hold down the {VOL -} button ON THE PLASMA TV itself. Not Remote
# Press the {RECALL} button on the remote control 5 times.
# The Service Menu will be displayed.

# Use the {2} buttons to select "SRV-TOOL"
and press the {OK} button to access it.

# HIGHLIGHT the box on the right side of the last option: (Navigate by using the arrow buttons on the remote)
_______________________________________
PTCT :00.00.00.00.00 HIGHLIGHT HERE

# Then press and hold the {MUTE} button on the remote for 3 seconds.

TIME = Hours and Minutes of Operation.
COUNT = Times the Plasma was Powered On.

# To exit, press & hold the {POWER} button on the TV for few seconds.


The above for going into the service menu & checking the hour usage.  Please be very careful when you go into the service menu.
What I do for "washing" is to press the TV button on the remote.  Since I am using Astro, the outside TV aerial is not connected.  So if you press the TV button on the remote, there will be no input signal to the TV.  The screen will show a snowy picture.  Set the Timer (max 90mins).

Thanks

ohhh... so tats washing.. the snowy screen sweat.gif

BTW.. i m ok with getting into the service mode. BUT exiting is the problem. after viewing the hours count.

u mention press & hold the power button on the TV??? i hold awhile also cannot off.. so wat i do is jst press the power button on the tv let it off den on back again. wil this dmg it?? sweat.gif

also if i m doing it wrong, please correct me, tq smile.gif

The top bottom bars (2.39:1 ratio) colours cannot be changed since it is embedded in the content.

The side bars (4:3) can be changed on some plasmas but not the Pannys.

OHH IC smile.gif

thanks.

QUOTE(jitbeng @ Apr 29 2010, 11:34 AM)
I don't think can change.

Better zoom in to avoid IR/BurnIn during breaking period.

But since I already Break-In (about 1,300hrs), no problem for me.  Off & on use the Zoom.  But when zoom the PQ will degrade slightly.

Thanks

ehm. so after the break in period. around 200hrs.

watching blurays with the black bar shouldnt be a problem anymore??
