Runco has announced details about not one, not three, but
six new plasma models to be released before the end of November and ready for walls in time for Christmas. The SP-42, SP-50, and SP-60 all fall into Runco's CinemaWall line, and the SP-42HD, SP-50HD, and SP-60HD are in the PlasmaWall product range. Plasma sizes include two each of 42-, 50-, and 60-inch models, all with the usual HDMI and audio/video inputs, 1000:1 contrast ratio, Vivix II image processing technology, and ISF certification for both day and night settings. The 42-inch models sport 1024 x 768-pixel resolution, with the larger two sizes having 1365 x 768 pixels. No word on the pricing, but we expect it to be within range of the other CinemaWall and PlasmaWall line of Runco displays.

B-o-r-i-n-g!
Low resolution and contrast ratio. Just what I am looking for!
Run from Runco.

ummm Runco? Is that the same company that make those spray on fake hair and that rotisserie "set it and forget it" oven.

Ronco makes the hair, Runco makes some of the best plasmas you can hope to ever buy. The resolution may be low but the contrast ratio (which is measured differently by every company) will beat the pants off of anything including the Pioneer Elites.

So how much are Runco plasmas and LCDs compared to other brands? Are they monitors, or do they include a tuner?

they may beat the Pioneer Elites but not the Fujitsu
