Philips 3D instore demo evening....

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

Hi all

Something to get a little excited about, you may have heard about a little thing called 3D TV....
Well we are planning a 3D instore demo evening towards the end of May to show it off.

Now all the fine details are as yet to be finalized but I expect it will be either a 40 or 46" 8 series TV, hopefully the larger of the two - bigger is better, especially as far as 3D is concerned:)

We should have a good few sets of the glasses to go around as well.
Once I have more concrete information I'll update this post.


So...
If you're interested in joining us for the demo evening please add your name to this post..

Cheers folks
Ash

Sounds good.

Do you have any information on the new 3D TV's at this stage? Any early reports? I'm interested in the Philips 40PFL8605. Have you heard when it's due to be released, prices, etc...

Cheers folks

Thanks for the interest, sorry I cant give you anymore info re the evening as yet - its still being worked out.

The 40PFL8605H will sell for €1499.99, its bigger bro, the 46PFL8605H, will come in at €1999.99 and for those who want to really large it up, the 52PFL8605H at €2499.99

These are expected to hit us around June time but dates havent been set as yet.

These are Full HD 3D ready TV's.
There will be a add on pack containing transmitter and Active Shutter glasses realeased later in the year as well, oh and a 3D Blu-Ray player to complete the setup.
No pricing on these as yet....

Cheers

So the add on pack referred to here - would this possibly indicate to us folks that bought sets in 2009 might still be able to experience 3D. Or is this Homer Simpson logic...

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

Hi Builder22

'fraid not:(

You'll need a shiney new 8 or 9 series TV to take advantage of 3D

Cheers
Ash

builder22

Well seeing as i only got the 9 series in October, 3D will have to wait for me to catch up...:)

ButtersSuki

Hi Ashley,

Yes, put my name down so you can tempt me out of more of my fast-disappearing money. All looks very tempting, very tempting indeed....though as a Nov. '09 TV purchaser I think herself may have some thoughts on this.

Naturally I assume there will be a draw on the evening for some lucky attendee to win a Full 3D TV, 3D Blu-Ray Player and Surround Sound system.......:D:D oh, look, there's a pig flying outside...

mcwhirter

Count me in please

Klingon Hamlet

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

Hi all

Cheers
Ash

Twodogs

I'd love to see the demo too

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

Hi Builder22, seeing as your TV is now 6 months old, I'd say it due to be replaced:D

ButtersSuki, Nice idea, tell you what - if you can catch me one of those flying pigs i'll give it serious though.....

cheers
Ash

TCP/IP

Supercell

I'd be very interested in this, looking to upgrade before the World Cup.

rednik

Ash, is it true the last poster has to bring the popcorn and drinks for all. At this stage you better rent out the 02 for the demo.:p

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

Rednik

What a good idea!

But I should point out - It's the last poster who doesn't work in The Philips Shop:D

Cheers
Ash

Hi Folks

Our 3D demo evening will finally take place Tuesday 25th May.

I will have a 40PFL9705H 3D TV instore as well as a 3D enabled BR player plus 10 pairs of Active Shutter glasses to pass around.

I havent even seen this TV in action myself as yet so I'm looking forward to it

I plan on closing the doors at 5pm and having a Boardies evening between then and 7:30pm.
We should have a Philips rep' or two available so you can pick their brains for all the info on nw range of Philips TV's and of course 3D TV's.

So come along and bring a friend or two:)

Cheers
Ash

PETERDGRIFFIN

May I join in?

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

open to all Boardies:D
happy to have ya!
ash

lar77

Thanks, I'll pop in to have a look. Any chance there will be an 8 series there too?

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

I was originally led to believe that we'd be getting hold of a 46PFL8605H for the day but now I'm told its a 40PFL9705.

The 8605H range is due early next month....

ash

TCP/IP

Ash the most important when can we buy these babies

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

That is the important question!!

The 40 and 46PFL8605 are due week commencing 31st May so I's count that as being available in the first couple of weeks in June and the 9705 range is due July

We should have an eta on the 3D glasses pack and 3D BR player soon - these will follow the TV's.

Cheers
Ash

Richersounds.ie: John

Ash,

Can I come as well .

If I come I promise to let you borrow the new Monitor Audio Apex 5.1 Sub / Sat system which you can use for your 3D demo - the system is just plain MEGA - sells at £2500 normally - I'll also bring down an Onkyo TXSR608 1.4 Receiver so we should be able to make quite a bit of noise to match the 3D pics!

Looking forward to Tuesday & meeting Boardies in the flesh..

ATB,

John Mc

Richersounds.ie: Ashley

If you're bringing new toys to play with you are more than welcome John:D

Richersounds.ie: John

Guys,

unfortunately we have been forced to cancel our 3D demo tomorrow.

This is due to reasons outside our control (ie. the Courier dropped the factory sample which is worth many multiples of my annual salary and the Philips guys have spent all day trying to rebuild it today to no avail..:mad:).

We will reschedule it as early as possible and apologies for the inconvenience.

We will have to put the popcorn back into stock in the meantime :rolleyes:

Sorry guys and as ever drop me a line if we can assist,

ATB,

John Mc & The Philips Crew
