how long to wait for 1080p plasma?


Anyone know when we can expect the Panasonic line of plasmas to have 1080p? The 65 incher, which has it now, is probably out of my price range. I was thinking the 58-incher. Anyone know when the the new models will be out? Thanks. -Dave

1080p is the ticket for blue ray and hd-dvd. I have the Ruby. Sure it's a projector, but like many, I run the TWC 8300 that has the hdmi-out. PQ is quite excellent. Much SD material looks so close to HD--Of course stations vary--(Some HD ain't as good as we would want) However HD-DVD is splendid.
Dave,
Here is the Panasonic site http://catalog2.panasonic.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ModelList?storeId=11201&catalogId=13051&catGroupId=14624. No 58 inch. Visualapex.com appears to be a good source. I am on my second panasonic plasma, the first generation commercial and a one and a half year old consumer version. The picture quality on the commercial version is reportedly better than the consumer but who do you believe? Personally I am waiting for the consumer version to come out because I can buy it locally. Although I did by the first gen online, from a real store, and when I had a problem the seller, from New York, provided better service than I have had locally in California. Turned out the problem was the outlet in "this old house" was not grounded.
