i have bought a hatashi 50 in plasma and after three months of use a burn in on screen appeared. i called for a repairman and he came to house. tv was still in warranty. he said i had caused the burn in by watching a small area on tv, which is not true at aLL I NEVER Watched small screen. he then said hatashi would not cover this under warranty, but he could fix this problem for 2000.00 i only gave 1100.00 for the tv which i consider stupid to even suggest that. i will never buy hatashi again or any of their products. i have put this on facebook and it is going well i will do my best to cost them customers.
