Panasonic's welcoming you to the future of plasma HDTV, starting along with the stunning
150-inch 4K plasma, that is, surprisingly enough bigger than its old 103-inch model (shocking, we know) leading to the debut of three "super thin" plasma prototypes measuring 24.7mm deep in 50-inch and, for what it claims is the first time, 58- and 65-inch sizes that also include
Wireless HD. One-fourth the thickness of current Panasonic models and one-half the weight combined with no wires leads Panasonic to believe we'll be able to reorganize the living room shortly, without silly mounting issues and need to run cables. If that fails to inspire, how about a 42-inch prototype that claims twice the luminance efficiency and the same brightness as its current 42-inch 1080p model while only sipping half the power -- if that's a
concern. Check out more pics after the break.

just looking at the picture i thought it was a handheld. and honestly it looks better than any pmp out there. it's still a sexy tv though, i like how thin the border is.
Did they happen to have an "affordable" 80 inch? I'm all for thinner displays and better display technology but there is a big hole in the market - the between 65-103" at a price that the middle class can afford. $50K is a bit steep for middle class consumers.
Plasma uses too much power!
Move on Panasonic!
There are available arena quality Projectors whose lumens are so intense that even live pyro-technics within 50ft don't even effect their picture quality. These projectors cost 10s of thousands less than 100+inch Plasmas. So, I ask you ignorant consumers(go figure), what is the point? Why pay 50k or more when you can get a picture quality thats at least equal to Plasma with a picture adjustable to at least twice the "150in" and more powerfull than movie theater projectors for thousands less?
One of the top 3 wastes of everyones time and money on the planet is... ignorance. And, the largest percentage of blame almost always falls on oneself. Chew on that. If you brain can fathom it.
PS: Is it arrogant, IF it's anonymous AND thought provoking(causes people to re-think)???
Tough to be arrogant if it's really just ignorant.
Those arena quality projectors aren't exactly living room friendly, HD, and use ungodly amounts of power.
You know...if you can fathom it.
She looks like shrinked.
What's the big deal about wireless HD? The last time I checked, these things still have to be plugged in, so it's not like you can just hang it where you want and flip it on. And once you've got the power cable dangling there, a power cable plus HDMI isn't a big deal.
Having said that, I'm not against buying things with features I won't use. Me likey.
