S series just launch last year..tak mungkin la discontinued..BTW, for me plasma is better than LCD as new generation plasma already chop off their previous weaknesses..
Unbelievable BUT true.....the Pana 42S plasma like you and Infernus bought has been discontinued to be replace by a newer version in March, but still to be called S2 series I think. I dont think anyone can find this model and size anymore in KL cos of the very high demand. If looking for 50" then maybe still available. BTW the S series 42" LCD is going for RM2499 last week at certain shops and RM2799 at Best Denki yesterday.
