Got a Panasonic 42 PLasma at Xmas.....absolutely brillant.
They offer a 5-Year Guarantee as well.....now that is peace of mind!!
Also.... the picture is great and over 36 inch they say that you should get PLASMA rather than LCD.
Watched 'Pacific' last night on Sky Mpvies (not HD as did not join up for same yet) but great sound and graphics..
