Panasonic TH-42PA20A & NTSC?

[Mega Curve]

Hi All,

Looking at getting the Panaonic 106cm plasma, and interested in how it
handles NTSC video?

Currently have 2 TV sets, a local small AKAI PAL TV and a Japanese
Domestic Panasonic NTSC TV and want to replace them before they die.
We have a Pioneer DVD player that outputs NTSC discs as NTSC signals
and alot of NTSC Video tapes played by a Japanese domestic Panasonic
VCR.

Does the TH-42PA20A shrink NTSC vertically, or anything else strange?

Thanks,
