Panasonic - anyone else on back order for a Plasma ?
Discussion
I ordered a new home cinema system from my local Panasonic dealer 3 weeks ago now. In that time everything has arrived at their shop from other suppliers (Yamaha, KEF etc) except the screen - a TXP42V10.
The dealer tells me that their firm (several shops) has over 30 42" and 50" V10's on back order, some as far as 8 weeks. They cannot get a straight answer from their rep who is being elusive about delivery dates except for saying they are next on the list for supplies when their UK stock is replenished.
Does anyone in the trade know why Panasonic are being so slow to fill these orders ?

Spoke to the Pinner (N.Harrow) independent Panasonic branch about the V10 and availability earlier today and was told they are waiting for the last two customers had ordered a while back and that's it, no more orders being taken. They said a new version is soon to come. Till then V10 are no longer available.
I'm sure somebody will be along soon to give you an exact answer.
Hope you g et it sorted mate.

It must be absolute hell watching your favorite DVD's of Spongebob Squarepants on your existing setup ...
