I've just purchase Panasonic TH-P42X30K 42" Plasma for RM 1850. But then just now saw in Lowyat, they are selling it for RM 1588, feels like i was cheated

Thats why the best is to do some homework and survey 1st before buy..

a few Panasonic plasma TV caught my eyes...saw it at HN today

1) Panasonic 42" 3D Plasma TV P42GT20 with free 3D bluray player BT300 worth RM2000... RM4899
      (made in Japan)

2) panasonic 50 " Plasma TV TH-P50U30K  RM4199

Size does matters.. So, if whoever gonna buy the TV have a good ambient and doesn't mind TH-P50U30K was a bit reflective and don't need the 3D, then go for it..

It says 50" is 41.72% larger area than 42", hmm
*
That's base on the total display area of the TV screen.. 1068.25 inches² for 50" vs 753.76 inches² display area for a 42" TV.

The base still to have a side to side comparison if possible and depends on the viewing distance.. Some people might not feel comfortable viewing 50" display from a close distance.

I was told by HN sales man that for Plasma TV even sitting position is near... it will not strain our eyes like LED or LCD TVs...
due to the natural colour/soft tones... not sure whether is true or not...

my sitting position is about 10 feet... i am thinking to get 50" plasma  50U30k or 50 VT20K... but afraid is too big
*
I think the 10 feet away for the 50" was just nice..

Ferrari cost RM800,000.00
Fuel consumption at 4 km per liter or 72.5 sen/km at RM2.90 per liter RON97.
Fuel consumption per year RM17,400 for 24,000 km
Per year, fuel cost 2.2% of car's worth.

65" Plasma cost RM22,000.00
Electricity cost RM1.4 per night or ~RM500 per year @ 500W/hr. 8 hr per night.
Per year, electricity cost 2.27% of TV's cost.

As you can see, the cost of running either Ferrari or 65" TV is around 2% of the product cost. Of course we all know that except little kids who need spoon feeding. Typical of a local education where kids are never encouraged to use their brain. A pity. If one can afford a Ferrari, 2% running cost should not be a problem. Likewise if one can afford a 65", 2% electricity cost shouldn't be either.

I think the electric cost should be even slightly lower as it's not consuming the 500W fulltime.. smile.gif

What about V20K ? Got a Samsung C5500, still can't get it to play BD ISO though a friend here has stated some success with his C5500. Guess it is the file type behind the ISO layer.

How can I find out what the new firmware update can support ? Nothing much on this in Pany website.

Thanks.l

plumberly,

Are you sure that you got the correct BD-ISO file to test out?

There's a label at the back of the TV...  nod.gif

Another thing, I noticed the front of the TV display is quite warm, but I never notice this on TH-P42A20K, that time I only knew the back of the TV is warm... any problem here?  blink.gif
*
TH-P42A20K only have the resolution of 1024 x 768 pixel compared to TH-P42GT20K which's full HD with the panel at 1920 x 1080 pixel, thus the warmer front panel

how much is the cheapest HomePlug you can get?
*
I'm using TP-Link PA211 KIT which cost me RM150. There's cheaper version at RM99 but not recommended as it's not designed to cater for HD video streaming.
