Samsung new LA32A550 @ RM3,700

Wow. This is something great to hear.
But the price is still bit steep

No need to go full HD with a 32incher..unless you got a blueray player also

I need to use it as monitor as well.
HD Ready or Full HD?

Yea. Received PV80h yesterday. Awesome. Sorry didn't post yesterday, was busy molesting the plasma...heheheh.

The stand can swivel, but swivel from the bottom. The bottom got wheels.

The PQ is excellent. I still haven't look through the manual completely yet.

But this is the package:

1. Panasonic HDMI cable
2. Panasonic 5 years warranty (stated in the warranty card)

This unit is from Panasonic Malaysia.

My HT-465 home threatre no here yet, so cannot test the 1080p upscale. But I've tried normal component connection DVD playback. the picture is great.

The distance between the TV and my sofa is about 12 feet. So even with 480i still looks very good. You cannot tell.

Bro, something wrong with your picture quality ... grey bar ??? ... please double check

That MI:3 movie which I download and burn into the DVD. But I can zoom in until cannot see the grey bar.
Some DVD have different widescreen ratio.

Is all widescreen movie should not have grey bar?

Bro, nothing to do with DVD or Blu-ray movie ... is your Panasonic Plasma PV80H ... can you go to Menu ... choose Picture Settings ... try all the three mode - Dynamic, Standard and Cinema ... see still the same or not

digitaltech..i guess wat bro clngu said is..it shd b darker black..not grey....but bro clngu...do u still rmbr wat is the color of the bar on the caravan?

DigitalTech, nice deal u got there... the best deal imho,.
Anywayz Im happy that you got a good deal, and the plasma looks good.

It looks very decent and nice set
Btw noob question, PV80H is full HD or HD ready?

hd ready only

should be black ... cannot be grey ... otherwise Panasonic close shop loh ... I believe the colour off balance ... need to adjust Contrast, Brightness, Colour, Tint, Shapness ...

Cant wait for mine.. althou its only pv8h.
No free HDMI summore.. feck.. Hope panny give 1 free in the BOX...

yup...panny not lik LG..LG 1 is grey..lucky ur pioneer is fully black

actly panasonic got free hdmi n s-video cable..
y u n digitaltech din go complain?it is 100% confirm will get free hdmi n s-video cable from panny

Pioneer Plasma is fully imported from Japan ... different story lah

yalo..some more so exp...hey...out of topic a while..i think hackwire got contact wif u rite?u come my place after i finish exam..he wan buy aircon...mayb 3rd of may

I was just thinking.. could the "gray" bars be caused by the angle the picture was taken? BUT we all know Plasma has a great viewing angle so that shouldn't be the caused of it...which leaves the following question :

1) Brightness set too high
2) Crappy copy of MI:3 (u did mentioned it was copied right? )

Anyway, its great that the panny PV80 is finally out. Could it have arrived 2 months earlier, I would have gotten it. Sorry Panasonic, I've give my money to Sony..

yupe ... i introduce him to you ... Panasonic i2 inverter ... the best in the market ... make sure you serve him well

adrian, the foc cable can be found in the box or have to ask the sales ppl 1..?
if have to ask, i go call HN n basuh them kau2.
