Comments about Panasonic TCP50G25 50" 1080p HDTV with VieraCast Wifi with Skype:
Ultimately the bottom line will come down to Price & Value VS Quality & Size. And in my opinion one has to own a product for over a year to be able to effectlively review it, which is possibly why it is so hard to find a decent review for the G25. However, with that being said when U look hard enough U can always find! Having only been a few days I am ecstatic with my purchase and 100% satisfied with my purchase, it was however a bit difficult to find this model in stock at stores. Reason being, this isn't your regular size or quality model, this is your mid to high range model and there simply is not a grate demand for them. If U are serious about your picture quality, movies and gaming this set should be at the top of your list! Don't believe the hype that Plasma is dead, that's just what most LCD-LED manufacturers want U to believe because they can't compete with the latest generation Plasmas. As with anything, in time, the companies get better and better, but like already explained this isn't for the novice or ignorant home theatre owner for U will not be able to appreciate what U have nor why U paid such a price, and definitely need to invest in a home theatre(Blue-ray player and surround system, high-end HDMI cabling and all)....Good luck and good shopping and always do YOUR Homework!
