Where the hell do you guys get your P42U30K's from huh? I've looked here and there, tak jumpa langsung! 

In Hell?

Just got my P42U30K deliver yesterday. Saw twe more new sets on the delivery lorry. 

where did you get it from bro?

Brader, I bought mine from a Panashop. BTW, I'm from Ipoh. Still fiddling with setting of the tv. Tested out Bug life and Ratatouie. It look fantastic.

News for Panasonic 2012 Plasma TV lineup.

Just got my P42U30K deliver yesterday. Saw twe more new sets on the delivery lorry. 

I have tested with both HD and SD signals on both TVs.
I took a normal HK Drama (650MB) and a Planet Earth (2.7GB) to be played on both of the TV own built in Media Players

The comparison that i notice is as of below:

Panasonic
HK Drama: Playback started successfully. The picture was pretty smooth and very less boxy edges noticed even at the side curved lines. Picture and color is much softer compared to Samsung (based on Dynamic setting).

Planet Earth: Playback started successfully. The picture was very smooth. Color is rich and pictures are sharp. There was some juddering of the playback at the start but after i skip that section, the movie continued playing normally.

Price: RM2,850

Samsung:
HK Drama: Playback started successfully. The picture was pretty smooth as well but more boxy edges was seen throughout the picture. Picture and color were much brighter compared to Panasonic (based on Dynamic setting)

Planet Earth: Playback didnt started successfully so i could not provide comment on this. The message says the codec is not supported. Firmware issue i guess.

Price: RM2,950

guys, I was just wondering.

Do y'all think I'll still be able to find a P42U30K sometime in May/June?

Midvalley Jusco got vt30 and st30

Why don't wait for U50 or even better UT50 since it is May/June?

Yeah the UT50 series look interesting bro, but they'll be expensive right? Like in the range of 2-3.5k?

Some guys are getting the P42U30K's for 1.5k. What a bummer.

I tried looking for it here and there the last few months and after getting frustrated I just got a Full HD Philips for 1k. I'm not really enjoying it though. The HD quality is good, except for the ghosting images when I'm watching football. But the SD quality is pure crap.

well even last years the 42u was hard to find.and if youre waiting till may/june might as well go for ut series since panny has already released new models.the ut series will have lower price now compared to back then.by low i dont mean dirt cheap but it will defo the worth the wait.

i bought my 42u last year after searching 2 weeks(tho i did do reaserche months before and decided for that model for quite some time) and got lucky one shop still had them.

Wow, you're one lucky guy bro.  Did you buy the TV from a Panashop?

Btw, is this the one you're talking about? The P42UT30K?
