saw the Panasonic demo at the refrigerator store and talked a long time to the sales/tech rep for the region. He was nice and knew his bits. It ran from a "VHS" tape deck that was way more cool than the TV. The picture was amazing but I have cable so I can't even compare it to good current broadcast TV. I get much better reception with rabbit ears. The best thing about the demo was the comments of the people who were in the store to buy a new washing machine. "It's 3-D! Is it 3-D? it this the new 3-D TV we heard about? What am I looking at?" No kidding, it was a riot! I don't know how the sales guy could keep a straight face. The big problem with this format is the same as DVD...there's nothing to see. Put on a record and turn out the lights.... now that's high definition!I love movies and wish I still lived in the city where I could go and see a good FILM once and a while -- without the idiots who ruin the mood. I'm first in line to get a state of the art TV when they have the films I want to see. If I see one more Austin Powers demo I'm gonna...do something. Doesn't anyone selling home theater have any taste at all? Wouldn't you love to see "RAN" in HD? Or even see it in a good movie theater on a wide screen with focus and a proper sound system? Don't get me started.
