VIZIO had a better weekend than you, less tequila

Don't think for a second VIZIO is planning on giving up that "America's#1 LCD HDTV Company" title, announcing it sold over 280,000 televisions over the Black Friday week. That's a 40% increase over last year, with 50,00 120/240Hz TVs in the mix and over 20,000 50-inch+ models. Those soundbars? Over 7,000 moved. It would appear that moving slightly upmarket with its pitch (as prices in general have plunged) has been a winning strategy for the company, we'll sit back and see how happy the competition is with their 4Q performance, and what, if anything, the other LCD manufacturers can do to wrestle the crown away.
