Will Black Mamba production resume soon? Or is it now a paragraph for the history books? What's going to replace it? It's almost May. Something's gotta be in the works and announced soon, don't you think?

Its still listed (barely) on the Panasonic.jp website but you'd think its the redheaded stepchild with the GS120 and GS200 taking center stage.

You mean the dork on the left? http://www.dvfreak.com/mx8ad2.jpg

That's Pana USA's little spokesperson---he's since been yanked.

Yep, the dork on the left.

Why is that ladies two small children so shy?

You'll have to ask "plasmaSMP" that one (ad creator), and Pana USA, of course, about the dork. I really don't understand what Pana USA was thinking with plastering that little guy all over their website.

Whatever happened to PlasmaSMP? Different alias?

I really don't know. I should post something where he used to hang out. I did have his e-mail at one time but I have since misplaced it.

Let me know if you find him. He had interesting posts (including pics) and owned a DVX100 and DV852 if I remember correctly.
