Ask Engadget HD: What's the best plasma to pick up in 2009? {Engadget HD}

Jul 23rd 2009 4:19PM The Panasonic Plasma G10 will save you alot of money over the V10 THX model . Then get it calibrated ( still cheaper than THX model ) and it will be the best disply on the market today even surpassing the vaunted Kuro and the THX V10 . This is because it will be calibrated for your environment.

The off axis color shifting on LCD makes it inferior technology...

See Widescreen review and HDGURU.com for info ...

Still no discernable difference between 1080i and 1080p? {Engadget HD}

Nov 13th 2006 12:23PM 1080P is essential for larger screens 65" and above especually in front throw 110" PJ's as the fill factor reduces pixelation factor or SDE ...

The above mentioned unoticeable differences are typical with pygmy size screens :)

Sep 11th 2006 9:18AM "every Warner BD from now on will be VC-1"

too little too late for those people who bought the crappy macro blocking MPEG2 versions ...

"As for those Walmart buyers, HD DVD is already being confused with upconverting players. Blu-ray is different enough to grab the eyes and ears."

Sep 10th 2006 1:33PM "When €1000 is equal to $2000, " yes that translation is correct but who said that they will keep that price in the more competitive NA market ? We will see more expensive Betaray units from Pan and Sony " the one and only " above the Samsung $1k price ...

Betaray has less 25GB single layer than HD-DVD 30 Gb ( far better name for the Walmart crowd :) ) . Then combine that with the dinasouric MPEG2 codec the greedy Betaray uses and we have an unmitigated diasater...

Bring it on fan boy...

Sep 9th 2006 2:20PM "considering what a 1080P-capable HD DVD will cost, the player price is no longer an advantage for one over the other."

That higher price is for EUROlAND and will be still half the SONY " the one and only " Betaray player :)

Jul 21st 2006 3:10PM "For that kind of money I can acquire three Sony G90's with HDMI cards, or three Ehome 9500L's and do 1080P with much better on-off contrast and be rainbow-free."

Replace the G90's with 2 Marquee 9500L's and using HS-SDI input cards running BLENDZILLA HQV processor with two side by side 7 ft pics with 1/2 ft blendzone and viola 21 footlamberts with a 13 ft plus wide 2.35:1 1080P / 48 real HDTV pic...:)
