What reviews did you read? Why didn't you just go to the Panasonic website or read your manual? Websites can say just about anything. The internet isn't very good about assigning voice, authority, or value to "reviews."

It can take a 1080p/1080i/720p signal, but it displays at 720p. This is typical now, but used to be important. Ask anybody who has a projector that only accepts certain signals.

Anyway, $685 is a pretty good value. I'm sketchy about display plasmas since they're burning their colors @ probably 11k for 12 hours a day, every day. Can't really argue with sub $700 on that set though. Best of luck.

No you didn't. You may think you wanted one, but you didn't.
