i live in the states and would like to know who is having a great sale this weekend? i don't think an elite pioneer is in my budget , i'm just trying to justify the extra expence of the 4270hd. i found some internet sites, plasma depot, dtv express, i just don't have any history with them. are they really aurthorized dealers selling new stock.
every place i've seen the panny 600u it seems either the signal being sent to it is bad or it's just not in the same ball park as the pioneer.



FMU, places like VisualApex are pretty good. A friend bought his Panny there, granted they only have the commercial versions. As you stated, it's hard to see them at stores because it all depends on the source material and not all stores have real, "clean" HD feeds. I've found that stand alone Magnolia stores are pretty good vs the ones inside a Best Buy. You might also try a high end, boutique stereo store that also has displays.
