Having bought the TX-P42G10 over a week ago I am very impressed with the standard definition picture via a Sky box. This is better than the Sony CRT we previously owned and has me wondering whether it is worth upgrading to Sky HD. I haven't been able to test Freesat as the connection into the standard Sky box does not fit the Freesat connection. Picture via Blue ray is stunning and the sound is better than I expected, having read some other reviews.
The only downside is the constant noise of the fans which can't be heard when watching action movies but at normal listening levels is distracting. Although it is not loud I am regularly aware of it and had I known this, I may have had second thoughts about buying.
Update:
After running in the TV for a short while, the fans are now much less intrusive and I have been able to connect the sky cable to the Freesat input - the HD quality is first rate.

I can definately recommend this TV, the picture and ease of use is fantastic. It does exactly what it says on the tin, has a freeview tuner, an analogue one (if you still need it), and a Freesat tuner. All housed in a fairly slim unit. There are others that are a lot more svelt from Philips and LG, but I can't tell how thick it is when I'm watching from the other side so I don't care.
If you need more features, or indeed want a slimmer TV, there are new higher up the range TV's due out from Panasonic in the next month apparently. I didn't and bought the G10. When would I use the PIP or need THX certification on a TV this size when the picture is already fantastic compared to many LCD's.
If you need the push to click add to basket, do it you wont be disappointed.

I bought this television to replace an LCD model whose motion handling jitters had driven me to distraction. But I got a whole lot more than I bargained for. Apart from its legendary handling of fast moving objects the Panasonic also delivers the most gorgeous palette of colours. It's a 42 inch kaleidoscope. The blacks are deep and the contrast is stunning. These are the very ingredients required to make a picture look natural. I confess that the screen does give something away to the best LCD's in terms of image sharpness and detail. For my money that is an acceptable price to pay in order to get pictures that are so lifelike that you literally get sucked into the drama.
The television does have another drawback though. I found the sound quality to be distinctly ordinary. It's perfectly fine for watching Sky News or GMTV, but I doubt many movie watchers would consider the built-in speakers to be serviceable. I bit the bullet and bought a home cinema system to go with it. Problem solved.
In short it is easily a five star performer in my book, especially for those already sold on plasma.
