For the price, I don't think there is a better TV out there.
Last winter, I bought the 65" version, the 65PZ750U. This year's 800U's are supposed to be even better. You might consider the 850u's since I think they have 24p processing, and the 800's dont.

I love my TV, but, I do have one complaint about it; when using it as a PC monitor, there is a minor problem. If there is a super dark color (like a title bar) on a white backround, the white shades a little darker on either side of the bar. It doesnt happen during media watching however, its the static image and contrast that causes it. Hopefully, that is improved this year. Aside from that, the TV has been perfect.

I bought mine at Vann's, in Kalispell Montana. It was $4500 US at the time, and $9,000 Cdn here. With the par dollar, it was a total no brainer. There was no duty because Panasonics are made in Mexico. Depending on what prices you are finding here, you might consider a trip to Kalispell. They have it listed at $2000 US.
