The Panasonic TC-P65VT30 65" Class VIERA VT30 Series 1080p Plasma TV is at the frontier of a flat panel breakthrough which turns traditional passive viewing into a completely interactive 3D experience.
The 600Hz Subfield drive ensures that each individual pixel remains lit for the minimum time possible to reduce after effects. This is especially important in sports and action sequences. And speaking of action, Game Mode tweaks the TC-P65VT30's settings, prioritizing fast response and super-sharp detail to meet the demands of the lightening-fast gaming world.
The TC-P65VT30 65" Class VIERA VT30 Series 1080p Plasma TV's extensive connectivity has got your digital options covered with four HDMI connections, so you can switch from Xbox to PlayStation to TV as fast as you want to. There are three USB ports to enjoy music, videos and JPEG slide shows. If that's still not enough, the LAN port is your gateway to a world of online entertainment. Just press the VIERA Tools button on your remote. But that's not all your remote can do. Instead of juggling several remotes while you miss the kickoff, control all of your HDMI connected devices with just the VIERA remote. Setup is a snap. You can even go wireless with the included Wi-Fi adapter.

Comments about Panasonic TC-P65VT30 65" Class VIERA VT30 Series 1080p 3D Plasma TV:
This TV looks and works great. B&H got it shipped out to me quickly and it was delivered to my house within 2 weeks of ordering it. The picture is great... Deep blacks and vibrant colors. The 3D works well too, but that wasn't a major selling point for me since I'm not a big fan of 3D. I have two windows with drapes in the room and I have had no issues with glare.
The Hulu and Netflix apps on the TV work well. There isn't much of a buffer, so pausing and restarting can be tedious, but the picture quality seems much better than what I get off my PS3 or XBox360.
The only down side is that I am using the TV with an Onkyo receiver. The two units work well together once they sync up, but they don't seem to sync on power up. I need to adjust the volume on the amp before they sync through HDMI and start working properly. It looks like the only way to ensure full compatibility is to buy a Panasonic amp.
Overall, I would definitely suggest this TV and B&H to a friend.

Comments about Panasonic TC-P65VT30 65" Class VIERA VT30 Series 1080p 3D Plasma TV:
Upgraded from a Sony KDS-R60XBR2 after its picture went all green like the Hulk. The VT30 is just very slightly darker in overall light output but the color and contrast are far superior. And the lack of motion blur is a great bonus too and immediately obvious. The blacks are truly at ink levels and blend with the black bezel without delineation. I haven't played with the extra internet connected features or 3D yet but these aren't as important to me as the picture quality anyway. This is a great plasma TV and I would highly recommend it.
In addition, B&H was excellent to deal with. They price matched and when the first unit arrived shipping damaged, they got a replacement to me within a week. And I'm at the opposite coast. I'll definitely be recommending B&H to others.

Used in a 23'x25' great room. Both the 2D and 3D Pictures are very good. Wireless connection easily set up; appears to work well, although I have not tried streaming a movie. Remote is easy to use; light function illuminates the keys.
