Panasonic Z800U Plasma TV

[fired up]

Greetings,

Has anyone heard anything about the Panasonic Z800U line of Plasma TV's that are coming out in May? I'd like to know if anyone has any information on them. I only know that they are THX certified and approach the level of the Pioneer KURO now in terms of blackness and PQ. That is what I picked up by reading other posts at various forums. I'd like to buy one since they are half the price of the Pioneer KURO sets. A 46" Pannie should be about $2200 delivered via internet direct dealer. Forgot the price quoted for the 50" model.

Just looking for specifics.

Thanks,

Eddie

I am looking forward to these sets as well. I too would like a 46 inch model, but I will wait until the fall or end of the year when the prices come down a few hundred dollars. I have seen the 42-inch model available for pre-order at $2300 at my favorite site.

You are probably confusing that with the Z80U. I can see how that could happen, seeing as the 2 models are just 1 digit off: http://www.hdtvsolutions.com/Panasonic-TH-50PZ80U.htm
