    I just got notification from the company handling the free guide books on Panasonics behalf that the serial number on my camera (that was bought at Samy’s in LA) doesn’t match the ones on their list….???? What a pain. Hope that the camera isn’t discontinued b4 they straighten it out and send out the book.

    Nick,

    What you should be hoping is that your camera is not “greymarket”, which would mean that not only no book, but no warranty.

    Hey Nick,
    Meryl Altman here; Product Line Business Manager for the HDX900. Firstly, permit me to reiterate that Panasonic has NO intention of discontuing this camera. We shall maintain our support of all of our tape based clientele for years to come.
    I am sorry that your serial number was not accepted by our fulfillment company.This is a complex proceedure and could have some hicups. Please write me a personal email regarding the particulars and I promise to address your concerns this Friday. Currently I am in the midst of National meetings and I will be able to give it my complete intention on Friday.
    One last thing Nick; a promotion of this magnitude could obviously have some wrinkles. It is a commitment from Panasonic to honor all of our promotions.
    I look forward to hearing from you.
    Many thanks,
    Meryl

    Thanks for your prompt reply Meryl, much appreciated. I for one am certainly glad to hear that the camera will be around for the next wee while.

    Re the book and serial number I would be very happy to send you the details but I cant find your email address in your profile. Mine is nickhigz@prodigy.net

    I am assuming that if I bought the camera through a US dealer (Samy’s) then it cant be grey market…………right?

    Glad to hear you squashing any rumors of this camera being discontinued. We’ve had tremendous success with it, and it is now “asked for by name” by our top clients. Also, we did finally receive the Goodman Guide, thank you.
