Service Care TV and Appliance Repair Blog

Panasonic has "Raise The Bar" tour of 2012 product line.

Panasonic has announced a seven-week tour of "major" cities in the United States and Canada to promote their 2012 line of new home appliances, home entertainment products, personal care products and digital imaging.

The U.S. tour will begin in Los Angeles and Boston, go through San Francisco and New York Grand Central Terminal, and will wrap up in Buford, Georgia.

Buford. Georgia. I don't know much about Buford, but I think it's awesome that the tour winds down to a quaint little southern town. Coast-to-Coast-to-Buford. Love it.

Consumer confidence? Electronics, Yes. Economy... Not so much.

It looks like we're excited about the future of electronics, and have confidence in the products that will be delivered (which I guess extends to the industry as a whole).

Hopefully some of this will improve things all around.

This Valentine's Day, skip the roses and buy her electronics?

It looks like the ladies have been equally as gadget conscious as the fellas, at least according to a recent study of men and women in relation to electronics desirability.

Interesting... such much for candy and flowers.

The "people costs" of cheap electronics

An interesting article, really makes you think, about how we enjoy our electronics at relatively low prices through the horrible working conditions of Chinese electronics factories.

Seems like we could find a nice middle ground:

B-52 Prodigy Dual CD-MP3 Player DJ Workstation

Ordinarily, we work on televisions and appliances, some electronics like audio decks and components, printers and computers, etc.

Every once in a while, and we wish it happened more often, we get to work on something really different. Of course, I can't reveal any details (we have to protect our customer's privacy) but I don't see the harm in mentioning the product itself.

The B-52 Prodigy is basically a DJ setup, all-in-one, in a tough metal carrying case. It's even got two turntable like devices that I assume are for "scratching" mp3 recordings. Very cool looking.

I'm not putting on a sales pitch, of course, we just service (no sales). But it was fun having it here, and I hope it makes a lot of people happy.

It's working great now, and I assume it will be the centerpiece of a party at some time in the future.

(This is an open call to musicians! Give us a call for service).
