CES 2008: Panasonic's Enormous 150" Plasma TV Dwarfs All Competitors

Quote:
The opening keynote address from the president of Panasonic, Toshihiro Sakamoto, had one thing that Bill Gates' keynote yesterday lacked: A monstrous 150-inch plasma screen Panasonic calls the Life Screen. In Las Vegas and at CES, nothing counts quite so much as excess, so it looks like Panasonic has bragging rights for this year.

150inches, hmm that would be 11 feet wide by 6.5 feet tall. Plus the frame and base.. there's no way this going to fit my door.

I'd love to see how it would be delivered. That's certainly not something the average parcel service would ship.

On the other hand, I have to agree that getting it in the front door (never mind around a corner) will also be a challenge. If it breaks down, sending it off for repair will also be something to think about.

I was there. It is huge and I was shocked that the quality is awesome. It is 4X 1080P, yes 4X of 1080P. In addition, they have 1" thick plasma screen with 2X brightness and uses 2X less power, and the contrast ratio is also double. I was impressed the most is the Pioneer plasma TV Kuro line that is only 9mm thick, yes a bit thicker than 1/3 of an inch. With this trend of making plasma screen thinner and use less power and better contrast, OLED will have hard time launching in 2009 or 2010 since OLED Is hella expensive
