I’m after some help in choosing a TV. I’ve decided on a 42-inch plasma from Panasonic’s 2008 range, but can’t decide whether to go HD-ready or full HD (i.e. TH42PX80B or TH42PZ85B).
Initially, I’d be using it with a Virgin V+ box (or Sky HD if I decide to switch, which is likely), a Samsung HD-870 upscaling DVD player and a Wii console.
My understanding is that none of these devices currently do full HD, so the extra cash for a full HD TV would not be justified – is that correct?
If so, the TH42PX80B would seem to be the set to go for. However, I don’t want to get two years down the line and find that full HD sources have become commonplace and affordable, and my TV is then preventing me from getting the best possible picture quality because it is not full HD.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
