Philips 42PF9936D 42-Inch Widescreen EDTV-Ready Flat-Panel Plasma TV
recommend not to buy Philips Plasma TV
I got a new 42PF9936D around April 2002. During the last 3 years, it has been working fine. But, last Sunday (7/10), while watching TV, we heard a huge pop inside the TV, then the TV just went to standby mode. I tried to turn it on again, but the TV can stay on for just a few seconds and it turns to standy again. <br /> <br />The reliability is not much better than a cell phone.  <br /> <br />Please consider a different manufacture, or just forget about plasma.
