I know this is kind of early but need help ASAP guys. I'm about to buy a slightly used KRP-600M for $3500 on Tuesday. it comes with 4yr warranty and mount. Given what we heard about the upcoming Panny 58VT25 so far, do you think I should get the Pioneer or wait for the VT? I'm guessing the 58VT will come in around $3k or so.

It's listed as $2900 at Cleveland Plasma. The 58" won't be out until around June, so nobody at this time can tell you which is the better display.

Bump. Buying this set tomorrow. Any one else have an opinion on whether to buy the 600M or wait for the VT?

If you don't think you'll be into watching 3D content, I would just get the 600M.

As much as I like Panasonics (have bought 2 this year for parents - X1, S1), I dont see the new 58VT25 outperforming the 600M. As a 9G Kuro owner, I may be a little biased, but I don't see the contrast ratios of the Panasonics equalling or bettering Pioneer this year.
