No more 50 inch 85u Panasonic at my local stores - Blu-ray Forum

NeverHappy · 02-21-2009, 03:18 AM

So Best Buys or Bernies no longer have the panasonic 85u 50 inch only the 80u should I settle for the 80u or is the 85u so much better that I should consider buying online say from BH Photo or anyone else. Would buying the 80u be that drastic of a downgrade over the 85u or am I just hung up on the specs that don't vary by much. Or should i just wait for 09 models. Don't want to spend more than 1500 so an expensive super spec'ed out 09 model won't entice me I'm more price driven these days.

That's A LOT. I paid less than half for my 50'' 85u.
