If you like the picture on the Panasonic best (as I do), don't let the single component input throw you off. The easiest thing to do (short of routing them through an AV receiver) is to simply by a component video switcher: several component sources in --> one component out.The switchers can be found at all price points, from $15 Radio Shack jobs (which some people say work fine) up to $600 Extron pro-level switchers (actually, you could even spend a lot more).
I wanted a high performance, but reasonably priced unit. So, I bought the RGB4X-R component switcher with remote control from Inday. It's got very good specs, and it has discrete remote input codes, which makes the unit very friendly with most Universal Remotes.
Here it is:

This does look like a excellent solution. Thanks for the post.
Are you running HDTV on your set? If you are does it make a big differance?
Yes, I watch HDTV signals. I'm not sure what you mean by "does it make a big difference?" Do you mean watching HDTV vs regular TV?
If so, YES. HDTV looks spectacular on the Plasma, even though it is not full HD res, it looks clearer and more "HD" than most HD-res CRTs I've seen.I don't think the Inday component switcher degrades the HD signal at all.
Hope this answers your question

Sorry to ask so many questions. My Panny is arriving tomarrow.Are you running Cable or Satilite for your TV programing?
Did you have to get a HDTV receiver to get HDTV?
Did you get the optional DVI interface for the Panny and if so are you using it?I'm running digital cable and was told by a salesman at Circuit City that I would have to get an HDTV receiver to get HDTV. When I called the cable company they said if my TV is HDTV compatible all I will have to do is exchange my Box for an HDTV Cable box, no charge and it will work. (This will be easy to try.)
Thanks for the feedback. Rich H: That is exactly what I have been looking for. I had hoped that it existed but couldn't find it. The remote control w/ discrete codes is PERFECT.
