Kiro

ordered it today


the panasonic 42PWD (480p) I bought 7 or 8 years ago (for the same price I paid for the Kiro !) is in the shop getting a new chipset.

It still works fine, but the remote went out about three years ago and I never got around to fixing it ... the remote accesses picture menu (which I set when I first got the pannel), speaker volume (don't use them), aspect ratio ( use the Sony SAT HD300 for that), and some high-end features (this is a pro monitor -- not the consumer model) that I haven't needed.

I was torn between getting another pro panasonic (TH-50PF9UK) because the bezel is so nice and thin and clean ....

could have gone either way ... but wasn't sure the HDMI card (add-on) on the panny was up to snuff.

... the Kiro is supposed to be state-of-the-art in plasma for another ten or twelve hours ... then Pionsonic is coming out with gen. 11

(the horror ... the horror)
