New Plasma for Me I'm interested in the current panasonic sets. BUT Should I wait for 3D

At the weekend i saw a demo of the panasonic 105 inch (I think) 3D TV at the NEC (UK) the sport they showed was impressive. Not sure about film though the avatar clip they showed didn't blow me away.

I wear glasses as well so wearing the 3D glasses over the top was slightly uncomfortable I guess the future of TV is for people with 20/20 vision.



Sky HD please. If you do this sky i put down the cash.
I did see recently we might be getting a mugen version as well.

They did change the rear suspension on the new one i couldn't tell the difference. It was much stiffer though which is hard to belive cuz mine shakes your fillings out.

Search you tube for Jeremy clarkson he did a back to back comparison with the EP3 guess which one he liked more
I have the last Gen type-r test drove this and it was nice but not enough of a leap. They needed to up the power but decided not to silly decision i think it's hurt the sales in the UK because the competition has caught up. The golf is a lot for expensive here.

The white one = L.S.D last time I checked.
@Rob
TV works 100% for me with my setup but here it's a FTA including some HD it's propably the best thing about wmc.

DVD's and Blueray as you say is a pain if you want to copy them, all i will say is AnyDVD and MyMovies Plugin. Pop the disk in and it will be copied to a location you have predefined. Easy! Although this is illegal in most countries but lets be honest if it's in your own home with your own disks who cares! MyMovies is what microsoft would have done if they could've.

WMC is not a set and forget solution but it is so extensable, extenders are what make it special. My whole fanily use it wihout problems.

To be honest Rob it just doesn't sound like the thing for you.
Running Win7 RC in the UK with both DVB-T x2 and DVB-S x2 Runs flawlessly. Just hoping for some SKy support for HD.
I can't belive the BBC haven't shown any F1 in HD I can understand if you can't do it for every race but you can't even be bothered to do it for the British GP.
If Ferrari want to Win le Man outright it would have to be a diesel to compete with the Audi's/Pug's. Come on people! Le Man does not have the same cache as F1 ferrari need F1.

Ferrari are a little annoyed at the moment because of the defuser issue and Kers. They thought they would have an advantage with kers but it doesn't really help when the rest of your car us not up to scratch. When they attack Brawn personally in a courtroom about a technical issue you are never going to win infact you know you've already lost. They spent to much time last year developing the 08 car to win they dropped the ball in 09.

The rules of F1 are fundamentally changing form a technical perspective and also from a cost base. This is good for the sport not bad three new teams have already expressed interest in joining due to the budget cap (they can still spend as much as they want on PR etc).
Can anybody say that this season has not been one of the most interesting for years? If not you don't watch F1 and are just a Ferrari Fanboy
Top gear had a Tesla on round the track it didn't do to well. The problem being you have to drive the car like a Nun to get anywhere near the range Tesla say you'll get, in fact they had two cars.

Anyway where is all this spare generating capacity we'll need to power all of these electric cars, Maybe you could send some to the UK?

I love the Japanese they try to keep dead technologies alive well after the sell by date. How often do you send faxes i sent one last year from memory.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I have a MacBook Pro and an Xbox 360 and I would like to get a 20- to 24-inch display that will support both devices. The speakers should be inbuilt, or there should be an aux out on the display to hook up external speakers. Help! Please!"
