This is preferable to it's 2D equivalent, the TXP42S30, even if you're not interested in 3D, as it has a higher-spec Panel than the S30.
We aint too bothered about 3D at the moment but its there if we need it and at the price it was equivelent to any 2D set. Lovely 2D picture on this.
Nothing like telling people they could have got it cheaper......... :p
Aye, and it's OOS

cheers mike_c I'll look into that, also noticed this dongle - NETGEAR RangeMax Dual Band Wireless-N USB Adapter sold on Amazon for £28.75 that works on the Panny (_;)
Aye, and it's OOS
?:{? its the same TV at the same shop...just highlighting the previous cheaper price

The TV also has a chunky grey bezel which looks a bit dated.

It was a fantastic deal at £450. Don't believe it was ever £399 at any reputable retailer... you may be thinking of the S30 which was £399 for a while.
This is a good deal. What other TV can match / beat this TVs performance at anywhere near this price?

You might be right about the S30. Fair comment
Unfortunately many of Panasonic and Samsung TVs prices went up recently. This one is still at the same price level (even dropped slightly):

...so you might consider it.
Panasonic ST30 was on my shopping list for a while, but only till I`ve done some research. To many cons.
