Anybody seen these advertised cheaply anywhere? I want to find a site then take it to Harvey Norman and get them to price match. The ones I have found are cheap (too cheap maybe??) and so I guess asian models, and Harvey norman probably won;t match. Any ideas?

try ebay. it is a freebie in the current panasonic plasms promotion. i'm sure there will be people who dont need it.
I need a new tv too….. I looked on panasonic website, and the freebie with the tv seemed to be wii kit??
There was still some Camera's left, but it looks like the promotion ended on Christmas eve http://www.hdbonus.com.au/hdbonus/Default.aspx
Unless you're in Sydney, they probably won't price match it. I had that problem (my store set a 50km limit).
I ended up buying it today through a Dick Smith price match (by The Good Guys) - $427 (camera + camera bag + 4gb SD card). Best offer I could find that they would honour.
im looking for this at the moment as well.
Buying from Hong Kong ebay is $325ish, but if you ever have problems you probably will get 0 warranty support from them (despite the fact that they claim they offer warranty, you can't leave them negative feedback after 60 days so you are dead in the water).
I would also like to buy from an aussie bricks and mortar retailer because I would like to use my platinum credit card to get an extra 2 years warranty on top of what they offer.
What is the dick smith price match policy? How did you pull it off?
I would ask Officeworks for their 5% pricebeat on the offer from this Sydney retailler that has it $409 delivered with a bonus pack:

Also, Topbuy has the USA model for about $370:
