  Panasonic TH-42PX80E
  
  Review summary: Barely escaping a lower grade, this plasma combines a number of noticeable defects; definition is a bit limited, there is no HD digital tuner, and the panel isn't dark enough in well lit rooms. Either way, it's still a good TV.

  Panasonic TH42PX80 Review: 42" Viera 24p 100Hz Plasma
  By Vincent Teoh
  
  Review summary: A new year, a new spring. Primroses are spotted; bumblebees and butterflies start flapping their wings; and it's nearly time to get the lawnmower out. And Panasonic - unfailingly - launches their new line of Viera plasma and LCD televisions.
  
  Pros: Excellent black level and shadow detail, Fluid motion handling with minimal blurring, Displays 1080p/24 video signal without telecine judder
  
  Cons: Native resolution only 1024 x 768 (i.e. not true HD), Does not deinterlace film-based material properly, Exhibits posterisation particularly with poor source
  
  Verdict: Armed with native 24fps playback and marginally better blacks, the Panasonic TH42PX80 represents an evolutionary rather than revolutionary improvement over its predecessor the PX70 series.
