i just saw the latest Samsung Plasma top of the line model PN64F8500, and its super nice. i didnt get to compare it side by side sa VT30 but i get the impression na the VT30 still has a blacker black, but the Sammy has all the belss and whistles.
also the design of the TV is very elegant. ampanger kasi ng bezel ng VT30.
I am yet to see a VT50 or VT60.
Price wise, the 64" Samsung has a tag price of 4.4k AUD while the 65" VT30 (very old model) sells for 3.4k
