The Bottom Line	CNET did not review the Panasonic TH-42PH10UK HDTV, but we did review a larger model in the series.	While still offering excellent all-around picture quality, the "professional" Panasonic TH-50PH10UK plasma TV isn't quite as good a bargain as its "consumer" cousins.	Panasonic's TH-42PX80U 42-inch plasma sets the picture quality-to-value standard for entry-level plasma TVs.	With the accuracy of its THX mode and great black-level performance, the Panasonic TH-50PZ800U is one of the best-performing HDTVs available.	The midlevel Samsung LN46A550 LCD TV strikes an excellent balance between price and performance.
