Adios Panasonic Plasma
Very sad news has come out of Panasonic - they are exiting the plasma business. DV Dude has been a long believer in the superiority of plasmas over LCDs, and has owned Panasonic plasmas since 2005. They just can't make a go of it, and are shutting down the plasma factories.
Panasonic is in the midst of an incredible soul-searching journey right now, due to massive losses over the last few years. Nothing is sacred. Don't expect this to be the last big exit announcement from them.
So, if you were thinking of getting a Panasonic plasma, you better run to your nearest TV dealer. They are making no more of them, and plan to be completely out of the plasma game by March. So what is left in stock is all there is.
