Whats the catch? Seems really cheap for a 1080P panel. I don't know much about Plasma, but is it actually 1920*1080 or does it do some sort of scaling?

So say you connect a PC/mac is it 1920*1080 res? If so surely bargain of the century??

According to this page:
http://www.hdtvtest.co.uk/Panasonic-TH42PX70/Specification.php
Its a 1024x768 screen?
Must do scaling.

##EDIT##
But according to this one, later in the review:
http://www.hdtvtest.co.uk/Panasonic-TH42PX70/Technology.php
Its a 1920x1080 screen?
How very odd. :confused:

Not too sure tbh...I just went on loads of review from google and avforums, everyone has a good thing to say about the TV. Then just searched for a low price, a lot of prices were £1k+.

Wyrdo · 27 Apr 2007 at 17:49

Yeah I had a quick look last night and most prices were over a grand, that's a damn nice TV.

I want one for that price!

If you email me I will tell you where I got it from, ordered it Monday night, got it Thursday.

BoomAM · 28 Apr 2007 at 22:24

Is it 1080p or not though?
Because its not entirely clear from what ive read.

Been reading on the av forums that that tv downscales 1080p to the 1024x768 screen size. :confused:

My wee setup

Soulja · 28 Apr 2007 at 23:41

What t.v model is that? and how much did it set you back?

Cant mind the model would have to break out the manual. I got in Dec for £1000 as i know the guy who owns the shop. He also threw in the stand for free too.

Its 42"

Soulja · 28 Apr 2007 at 23:54

Is it 1080p also? it looks very nice

thanks

na i think it only does up to 1080i. Is that a bad thing?

Soulja · 28 Apr 2007 at 23:58

No not at all, it's hard to tell the difference tbh

broona · 29 Apr 2007 at 00:00

Taken a wee while ago, there's now a Sky HD box in there instead of Sky+

1080p for £877?

Yeah

Zenith · 29 Apr 2007 at 10:28

Andybtsn said:
Yeah

It will accept a 1080p signal but it downscales it as the screen only has 1,024 x 768 pixels. Still a nice tv but it isn't a full 1080p screen.

eddie101 · 29 Apr 2007 at 17:33

wow some nice setups in here! will have to get a pic of mine up a bit later

This be my front room of my own place. Mrs was whinging I spent too much time upstairs on PC, so I moved it. Now I can ignore her in the same room. Shes the one sat on the sofa btw (lol )

Hopefully getting the downstairs sorted out this summer, I ******* hate wallpaper.

Oh, and the 360 works fine where it is. Its quite well ventilated and I do not have anything on top when I use it.

What model samsungs that mate?
