Video: Panasonic's 150-inch plasma defies reality

Panasonic's 150-inch plasma display was fairly baffling while still veiled, but if you had to catch a few drops of drool when checking that out, we'd suggest grabbing a handful of napkins now. Mahalo Daily's Veronica Belmont was able to get up close and personal with Panny's new beast, and it pretty much goes without saying that you can't afford to miss the video waiting after the break.

Hands-off with Panasonic's 150-inch behemoth


The odd disappointment of seeing a 150-inch plasma display is that it hardly looks like a TV "set" in the traditional sense. It just looks like a wall of video. But after your eyes adjust to the sensory overload, it's truly a beautiful thing. The 4k resolution of the set was clearly stretching the source material, but everything still looked pretty sharp, blacks were black and motion was smooth. We chatted with a Panny rep who said this won't be out until 2009, but we slipped him a fiver and he promised to meet us out back with one of these after the show.

Panasonic 150-inch plasma

Although we got to see some pics of this beast under wraps, there's nothing like seeing it in person. The gigantic HDTV was unveiled at Panasonic's keynote today, with at least one surprise, this sucker is 4k! That's right, it is 4x 1080p, which we're sure looks awesome, but oh my where will the content will come from? Regardless, we have no doubt this thing will look sensational upconverting your 1080p HD movies.

Panasonic showing a 150-inch plasma at CES?

The CES game of HDTV one-upsmanship is officially on, as Matsushita (Panasonic) is apparently planning to bring a 150-inch plasma to that epic Las Vegas tradeshow in January. According to The Yomiuri Shimbun's sources, the prototype PDP is expected to launch in 2009 with a price that "greatly exceeds" the largest model currently available, measuring a mere 103-inches. Anyone want to guess when we'll hear about a 151-inch screen from Sharp or Samsung?
