Still not decided whether I want Plasma with 3D or LED without, these are the two I'm thinking of choosing between, any opinions?
PANASONIC TX-P42UT50B 42" PLASMA 3D SMART TV £499 Comet
Panasonic TX-L42E5B 42" Full HD 1080p LED TV with Freeview HD £539 Richer Sounds

Or any other alternatives for no more than these cost? Going to have a look at these tomorrow

Do you need 3d, have you got any 3d sources to plug into it?
Recently seen some of the lower price ( if you can call them that) loewes and they are stunning ,
Depends what and where- Panasonic offer better sound than most so are well suited for non home cinema uses, we have a 46 Sony that I'm very happy with and wall mounts to leave a real sleek finish..
But at that price go for the Loewe

Everyone going for Panny..I was a Panny fanboy for years....
Had a 42" Plasma.......Went faulty.
Replaced with a 46" Panny plasma.....Faulty..
Replaced with a 42" Samsung LCD/LED........Been superb and picture knocks spots off the previous panny's..
I still have a 32" Panny LCD in the bedroom thats been rock solid.......But when it goes a Samsung will replace it..
I have also had a Philips Plasma,which was superb and is still going strong some 9 years later..
Had an Hitachi LCD............It was crap.....lasted about 8 months and got thrown back to suppliers!

i have a Samsung series 8, 3D + Smart TV.
The 3D i never use... and certainly can live without and i love watching my films.
But I love the SMART TV internet connectivity... thought it was pointless at first but now with the app - netflicks and iplayer built in its awesome! Even uTube is a giggle at times! Saves using my PS3 to play online content.
Def worth getting internet enabled if you are getting a new one.

Sorry- your 1st post said 40-44 inches.
Wifi dongle is a £30 extra.
If picture quality is of no consequence to you, go with a major manufacturer who are churning out cack tvs with their name on to attract the masses. This TV is the business - for this proce it's a defo goer for anyone and it looks the business.
