He had this model for a few years. I dont think he can return it or anything. Thanks Josten.
Oh. I presume you guys have tried different inputs & sources. If this terrible issue still exists, it's something with processing, maybe something like a bad motherboard or something (edumacated guessing). In such case, the parts are usually very expensive, and it's likely time for a new display. Which totally sucks. But, he/she will have a better TV for similar money.
Of course, there's always the extended warranty route, but to me it's not worth it. The odds of Pana plasma failure are low enough where it doesn't make sense to me. I'm sorry, let us know what you guys find out.
If you guys will choose to buy a new display, I'd personally wait for the '10 models to come out for a couple of reasons.
If you guys have Costco around you, they have generally been phenomenal with exchanges within their policy. I think it's something like 2 years, or 1 year extended for free, not quite sure, but I've seen it happen in person. Of course you need to know someone who has a membership.
