EXPIRED Panasonic TX-L42E6B

Options
If your looking for a 42" Smart TV wi-fi included you can now get the Panasonic TX-L42E6B at JL and other sites for £399. It's last years model and I think about to be discontinued but has reasonable spec for a 42". We have been looking for this telly and have been waiting for the price to fall. This is my first post so please advise if you think this is not a good deal. Another benefit of John Lewis is free delivery and a five year warranty included in the price. I also got 3% cashback through a work related scheme. Used my M&S CC for points, and will pay off at end of month.

    We got one last year. It's a really nice telly but bear in mind that it is last year's model - BBC iPlayer but not 4OD etc.

    Went in today to look and also saw this one, slightly more expensive, more smart? less freetime?


    Linky2 £429


    Now totally confused.
    Anyone have these or can recommend?

    Try the techie bit of the forum, they might be able to offer some suggestions.

    Or £400 with 5 year warranty. NB. I don't know if this is better than the JL one either.

    Ours arrived it looks great, JL are now sold out, we didn't buy it just for the catch up but for the slim silver surround. This years model doesn't look as nice. More about aesthetics than function for the wife. I'm probably going to connect it to an XBMC box to get access to otherwise unavailable channels.
