I don't think it's panel. My experience is the panels are pretty robust unless, of course, it's cracked.

Thanks for that link, sure to be useful in the future! Panel is definitely not cracked, as it's running (otherwise) just fine, no other changes, and no physical shock has been dealt to it. I did once read about issues with cracks spontaneously developing in Samsung plasma panels, but have not seen any evidence of that happening on this one.
