hi let me know if you have any luck!

i am looking for the same!

looking for a 100hz tho!

currys had a good deal on, i missed out though and apparently it's discontinued, but it retails for £600 but currys had it for £379 and if you use discount codes you get it cheaper...try it against your post code you might hit lucky...

edit:

i have just tried it again and it worked for me this time... i have put my order in

Yup I saw this one but this forum have way too many mixed opinions on Panasonic and the model before this one the Panasonic TX-28PM11 was a bit of a turkey.

So I think I will settle for sony ...never bought one before as I usally go for Toshiba. But as I said its for Mum so we will try Sony


Cheers Darko

Well I went ahead and ordered a Sony kv32cs71 last Thursday from Webelectricals.com ( I think that was the name) and it arrived today and my Mum is well pleased, The picture was very good lets just see if it stands the test of time.

PS the box was massive


Cheers Darko
