Panasonic Viera GT20 (TX-P42GT20) review

 

The Panasonic Viera TX-P42GT20 plasma TV offers superb 3D performance and is much more affordable than its higher-end stablemates. Crucially, it's also an accomplished 2D performer.

I bought this Panasonic plasma due to the deal on at the time (free 3d blu ray player and glasses)as I'd previously set my eyes on the V20 model. In the shop it looked good, the slaesman done his bit and I took it home. Firstly I should point out that...
