Update on Panasonic 42" 1080p Plasma

Its been a month now, and all is well with the new TV. I have yet to calibrate it (DV Essentials DVD hasn't arrived from Netflix yet), but I used settings from PC Magazine and it looks great.

Thoughts:

• Blacks are very good, though I actually thought they would be better.
  
• The 1080p resolution is phenomenal when fed by Blu-ray. You really have to be closer than my standard viewing distance to see it, but when you do it is amazing.
  
• The exterior of the set itself is quite good looking. Piano black works for me.
• No significant gripes!

Still highly recommended.
