Here's a link (below) to D-Nice's 2011 ST30/GT30/VT30 Reference Settings Thread..... Post #1 is how to properly prepare
the panel, and Post #3 has his reference settings to use on the GT30 after faithfully completing the procedure in post #1:

Here's a Link to Operating Manual:

There is a glaring mis-print in the manual - it says the TV has a 96Hz option but that's incorrect - it does not have this. It is confirmed that it's mis-print.
Edit - A few said that the manual booklet that came with their TV contained an insert with the correction.

The GT30 shares the exact same Plasma Panel and AR Filter with the ST30, but adds:
1. THX Mode
2. Slightly Better Black Levels
3. Narrower Bezel with a Silver Outer Trim Surround
4. Thinner Rear Cabinet and Bezel
5. Four HDMI Inputs (all mounted on the left side) compared to 3 on the ST30
6. VGA PC Input (but limited to 768p signal so it's kinda useless and looks like ass)
MSRP upon release:
