The Panasonic TH-50PX500U is a 50 inch flat panel plasma
television. A 50" screen is a nice for a plasma television,
not too big and definitely not small! It's easy to find
a HDTV flat screen tv, however most models require you to
purchase a separate receiver to get high definition channels.
The th-50px500u from Panasonic is different because the
ATSC tuner (hdtv receiver) is built in, so you don't need
the extra hassle and money of buying a separate tuner.
There are many others features in the 50" th-50px500u plasma
display besides the built in tuner. For instance ever use
a 50 inch computer monitor before? Well you can use this
Panasonic flat panel screen as a monitor for your PC. Want
to see your digital video or images o your TV, no problem.
The SecureDigital SD memory slot is designed just for that
reason. And the color is great, vivid colors are no problem
when there are over 8 billion colors being displayed on the
screen, yes 8 billion!
- sleep timer - there is nothing worse that falling asleep
in front of your TV only to be woken up later on. The programmable
sleep timer shuts off after a certain amount of time.
- v chip - this feature is designed to give parents control
over the programming that their kids watch. The way it
works is that it blocks television shows according to
the TV rating system.
- if you like watching your Panasonic HDTV home theater
system in the dark, I'm sure you find it hard to see the
remote control. Well the th-50px500u fixes this annoying
problem with the illuminated remote control. This feature
comes in handy for movie night, when all the lights are
shut off.
- you can watch a number of format on this Panasonic flat
panel plasma TV including, 720p (HDTV), 480p (EDTV) and
the 480i (SDTV).
So what does all this cost? Well it's not cheap by any means
but I'm sure you realized that before you started you research.
The price is $4,499.00, if you buy online. If you buy at
your local mall be prepared to pay even more.

- Cnet has a review of the TH-42PX50U, which is very similar
in features. They state, the PX500U series
offers some distinguishing refinements not found in the
baseline models, including picture-in-picture, a VGA-style
PC input, a front-panel A/V input, a built-in TV Guide
On-Screen EPG, and an SD memory card slot.
