General Comments
The Panasonic TH42-PWD6's picture quality on SVHS is excellent on component it is amazing. 4000/1 ratio gives a sharp, well defined picture. The screen also projects lots of light.
I think the screen was intended more towards the commercial market, hence the lack of a tuner, but that also means that you can get it in black or silver and its available for a low price. I paid £2,600 (including delivery and SVHS/Component/composite and PC inputs) from plasma-screens.co.uk, they also sourced the swing out wall bracket that I use for £500.
If your thinking about plasma, but are waiting for a price drop - this could be for you!
