i went to Currys yesterday, no 60'' but the 50'' looks ok
the 60'' wont be in till early december and will be £810, it has a very good screen image, but has no Smart or 3D.... WHY SO CHEAP?
Currys are trying to promote Backlight LEDs, normal standard plasma tv isn't popular any more, this means the standard hi-quality 50'' Panasonic plasma will be cheap too, in fact; they had no Pannys on display, they had a 60'' sammy plasma for sale at 800 quid, it looked great, it was this years panel, but like the LG, nothing fancy
they only had LED, SMART or 3D, the spotty kid tried to sell me a LED, but i found a much older salesman who told me what was going on, he said:-
``you'll find bargains like the LG before and after Xmas, we're getting in all the older standard plasma panels and selling them off cheap on purpose, i prefer the LG to all these LEDs, it has a way better image``
i then said what about the Panny i cant see any, he said ``customers dont seem to want it, it's too ugly, they go for the Sammy Smart LED, Because they've seen it on tv, it has a thinner bezel, it has poor audio, the LG is better``
``we do sell the Panny LED, but the really good Panny plasmas only dont sell at all, they have to be SMART/ 3D and have a thin bezel `` i think this is a case of Currys forcing LED on gullible people, rather than the techology being any good, it's an LED sales pitch
that 810 quid is for home delivery, plus taking away my old tv, he already gave me a pre-order receipt or something similar
this is good news for us, because this 60'' plasma is over 200 quid cheaper than on EBAY and will be excellent for gaming !!!!!!!!
what about Smart ? you dont really need it do you, because you already have the internet at home
