for all vj's! need advice on buying video mixer

[lbmcleod]

Ok i am looking to buy a video mixer deck to do some live video mixing. i am in the uk so need uk stuff e.g PAL and uk sites to buy from. i was looking at the Panasonic WJ-AVE55, i like the feature set but i cant find anywhere to buy video mixers or companies that make them. also: is the ave55 considered out of date now and should i be looking for newer models.

so any advice on what to buy/ where from appreciated
