Hi, actually just got this unit but still waiting for the delivery. Buy 1 take 1 for 60k.

Can you share your thoughts on your experience with it so far?

I got mine today at Abensons Shang but the sales guy there said the promo was over already, he just sold me the last two units when his previous buyer backed out. You can try asking just in case.  ;D

bought 1 already last saturday. :)

was scouting for a new hdtv for almost 2 months. did a lot of research. asked a lot of questions from other pdvd forumers. patiently waited for the right deal to come along.

the perseverance and patience paid off. the 42pj350 for only 33,600/12 per month is the best deal right now. even without mkv support.

buy 1 take 1 pa rin sya sir. abenson galleria.
pagdating ko dun sabi ko sa salesman sure buyer ako whether cash or card. kaya hanap nya ako kapartner. in less than 5 minutes meron na. my partner wants to pay in 12 months installment so i have no choice but to do the same. we paid a total of 67,200 for the units. my freebies were wall bracket, monster stereo cable, 4 pcs of glass food containers (parang lock & lock).

madami na akong napuntahan na av stores (including sns and listening in style), i think this is currently the best deal out there.

pero ingat lang sa mga bibili sa abenson. sobrang bolero yung mga salesmen nila. pinilit talaga kami na bentahan ng monster component video cables. sabi ko di na kailangan kasi hdmi is the best connection for hdtv. at dahil sa digital sya, kahit generic ok na. yung kapartner ko naninwala dun sa salesman, hindi sa akin. napilitan tuloy syang bumili ng di naman kailangan. at para magtigil na ako sa kaka-angal sa pambobola nya binigyan na lang ako ng monster stereo cable and food containers :)

hirap yata i-judge. unless you can see them side by side. afaik, walang stores sa metro manila ang meron both models. i auditioned both units separately, and i can only go as far as saying that both are definitely better than their lcd counterparts when it comes to movie viewing.

i don't know. maybe the panny will win if you compare it to the lg side by side because it has a more mature plasma technology. but i decided to go for the lg because of the price. best bang for the buck and swak na swak sa budget ko na 30k.

Good Pm Brad, plasma user din ako , use cinema sa picture setting for at least 200 hours muna para di magkaroon ng image retention, good luck at happy viewing sa plasma mo , ok yan hindi mananakit ang mata mo although reflective ang screen.

AV SURFER name ng store

29999 cash price free 5.1 speaker my speaker na brand, although di ko pa nakukuha
(you can buy just one)

200 hours cinema setting that's it?

walang bawal panoorin ng matagal?

thanks sa advice

also any suggestion on how do I maximize HD?

I don't have any HD device, cable destiny so analog lang.

Di ko pinatulan yung inooffer na LG HT system hd output lang pero dvd player lang not blu ray for 15k (market price is 25k daw)

When i was researching between the pj350 and x20, i saw somewhere that you can play mkv with an older firmware. But the thread was in europe so the units are probably pal.

Nevertheless i wouldn't risk getting that hacked if i can buy a decent hd player for 2.5k (kaiboer) or even 1k (nbox).

Checkout the nmt section for more info on these.
