Reviews of the Panasonic Viera TH-58PX600U

CNET Review
The Good: Excellent black-level performance and shadow detail; accurate color decoding; laudable standard-definition picture quality; solid connectivity with one PC and two HDMI inputs; includes a CableCard slot and a TV Guide EPG; sleek styling with thin speakers.
The Bad: Inaccurate primary color of green; black level fluctuates with very dark material; user menu lacks fine tuning for color-temperature controls; no independent input memories.
The Bottom Line: The superb picture quality of the 58-inch Panasonic TH-58PX600U makes it worth the price to huge-screen shoppers who want to go flat.

Review Summary: The Panasonic TH-42PX600A performed brilliantly in standard definition and when connected to a PC. High definition content and HDTV also looks quite good on the unit, but not as good as the other image modes. If you own a media centre PC or want your DVD
