  • I Have been looking at the TX-37LZD81 and even placed an order, which is still on order, I have been told that the current TX-37LZD81 has been discontinued.

    Does anyone know what the replacement model number will be? and when it will be released.

    I have sent two emails to Panasonic, but maybe they don't want me to buy their product, because the can not be bothered to reply.
