 I love these things ! March 4, 2008
I've had a 50 inch model of one of these for over year now, and I just got a 42 inch model to use as a computer monitor & HDTV for my quest room... Yeah I wish they were 1080p .. but watching it.. I've never been disappointed at all... They are really beautiful screens. Now matter where we go and what we've seen in stores and other peoples new 1080p HDTVs, we are always glad to get back home to this set. Couple of things.. I don't know why people bother to tell you there is no tuner.. I don't know anyone that uses their built in tuner anyway.. we do have one bedroom hdtv we just use the built in speakers.. but those too.. few people use.. I guess it's best you know that a monitor doesn't include those though. And as far as being glossy and shiney.. Our 50 inch model in in a room with 4 - 25 by 8 foot windows in front of it.. and glare has never been the slightest issue. My wife's favorite seat is as the perfect angle to be glared out.. and she doesn't even notice it she says.. So we have a pretty extreme setup for glare, and it isn't a problem. It looks like it will be before you turn it on, but it's not. Yes you don't get many inputs.. but you can buy more... and the really cool thing about that, I've already found out.. is as your equipment changes.. you can switch to different types of inputs.. to hook up most anything.. They has built in split screen controls.. big picture, little picture in picture, two pictures same size.. some (the 50) 3 pictures.. I hooked a PC up with a blue tooth keyboard and mouse and I watch TV, or use my PC or both.. or can switch to my old Nintendo Game Cube without getting up... Which is what I'm doing now with the 42 in the quest room. The rez could be better for using with a PC.. but it's great still.. big and beautiful.. We say that and you go 'ok'.. but I tell you.. watching an HD travel show is just stunning.. sometimes it's better than being there.... Get the expensive steel stand. These things aren't the lightest.. the stand holds in firmly in place.. I would mount the 50s on the wall unless you plan to go ino the wall and do some serious bracing... You can go to Panasonic.com and go to the Business section (not Commercial).. and find the monitors there.. It will show you all the different input boards you can get (you can even get a board with a whole PC built into it.. I wouldn't.. but still) These inputs change with the times, which is nice. I expect these monitors will last a long time.. I think they have like 60,000 hour expected life time without repairs.. which is years.. They are built to be left on as displays in airports and stuff... so they are rugged.. You just won't be unhappy with these monitors, once you crank them up.. Whenever you come home to it from a trip.. You will turn it on.. and know you are back home...
Amazing HDTV monitor December 12, 2007
This is an amazing HDTV monitor, it works really well. The picture is very sharp. It is better than LCD, especially in fast moving scenes.
I owned it for 4 months. Excellent blacks, excellent picture quality, nothing to complain about.

Pros: 1) Great picture! This plasma has the contrast you just can't find on an LCD.... not to mention the vibrant color! 2) The native resolution is higher than similarly priced panels at 1024X768. 3) This set easily produces a 1080i signal out of a cable box. Currently most satellite and cable companies are broadcasting HD in 1080i, and this panel which I am using as my bedroom tv is fitting the bill perfectly! I should mention I'm using component to BNC adaptors for my picture.
I also own a Sony 50" plasma which is also beautiful(but has had some reliability issues) and have tried an hdmi in that set and found that the picture looked better with component cables. With hdmi, the picture lost it's vibrant colors, and for the hefty price I returned the cable from where I bought it. Both cables were from the same top manufacturer. I also say skip the terminal board, unless you really need a HDMI input and just buy decent component cables. Even the component cables supplied from the cable company work just fine.
Cons: 1) The moniter should come with some BNC adapters. You will need to buy some if you use the component option. They only cost a few bucks and you will need 3 BNC adapters(BNC male/RCA female). 2) No tuner or speakers. This is exactly what I wanted though as my cable box is being used as a tuner, and I wanted to chose my own speakers. Not really a con unless you want these built in. In that case, you should buy the consumer version.
Other Thoughts: I'm thrilled with this purchase. This tv came with a free 5 year warrenty from Panasonic as long as you purchase before December 31, 2006. Keep an eye out because this free warranty is still re-appearing form time to time. A 5 year warranty simply means Panasonic has a lot of confidence in their product!
This is the second time I've dealt with the delivery company AIT(not sure who Amazon is currently using). Both times they've been awesome. They are not required to bring the tv inside(front door delivery), but have always offered. Just be sure you examine the panel before you sign anything as it could become damaged in shipment. Also, they usually deliver alone, and it's good to have somebody home to help them who is capable of lifting. Otherwise, you will have a problem. They call to schedule a delivery time. It will only protect your display.

I live in Barbados, so bying this item from a third party seller ritz camera had me abit nervous but i trusted amazon so i knew that all would have gone well.
About a month after I received my monitor in very good condition and believe me it was worth the wait. This monitor i think is the best on the market. The screen resolution is just remarkable and the black in it beats any LCD moitor . I would recomend this moitor to any one just remember ,it has no speakers or tuner just connect it to your cable box and use your bnc to rca adapter and you are good to go .
My next step is to get the HDMI cable and module where i can enjoy real HD quality as we don't have that feature from our cable provider in Barbados .So any one out there who might be interested in this model or any other panasonic brands don 't waste your thoughts just buy it ,it is worth it .
