RE: Recommendations for Plasma TV...

["Kevin Hawkins" <lists@xxxxxxx>]

The best price was from Ivojo (=A33500 free ship) but I eventually bought f= rom
Crampton and Moore (TV) Ltd. [sales@xxxxxxx] in Sheffield fo= r
same price but I collected, delivery would have been a little more. They ar= e
only a small dealer but Panasonic UK authorised & they also do a lot of=
internet sales (eBay).

I wanted to buy from Ivojo as they are good technically but a husband &= wife
company I am told, however they failed to get back to me on two occasions and had no stock for 3 weeks estimated. I was sort of happy without support=
but I wanted someone with an address and a shop front so I could feel a
little more comfortable. C&M had stock of a silver unit when no-one els= e had
& it is local to me. I get quite impatient when I want something so dro= ve
down and brought it home - it fitted vertically in my car  - they have= no
real comparison facilities just one 37" plasma on the wall, not worth = a
visit except to collect.

    I would strongly recommend RGB drive to the plasma or fa= iling that at
least S-Video - composite is very poor in comparison. Some S-Video to RGB converters provide separate H & V synch (or synch on green) which gets<= BR> around losing an input.

    I think Keith can do RGB KAT5 units to special order .

      After a lot of phoning around =A33500 inc VA= T and delivery is about the
  current best price for the Panasonic 42". The retail version is= silver and
  the commercial one black. I have had various conflicting comments on=
  differences in spec but the most knowledgeable resellers said they w= ere
  identical. Ivojo said that Panasonic had told him that the tuner boa= rd
could
  not be installed in the black version due to  a specific restri= ction made
by
  Panasonic (as the black units aren't intended for TV use). Through a= nother
  dealer Panasonic denied this and said they were identical.

    mmm... I can feel one of those impulses coming on - you = know the ones
    where you decide to go out to have a look at something a= nd return 5
    hours later after trekking across the country with it in= the boot!



    Now I wonder if anywhere within a 100 mile radius of Oxf= ord sells them
    (cheap), has it in stock and is open on a Sunday :-)

    I've got the 42" (PW3). I had a fantastic CRT - the= best example of a
    Philips 32" WS my Home Cinema dealer had ever seen = (and he didn't sell
    it to me). The Panasonic is better.

    Don't take it from me, ask Phil - he hates plasmas!
