Taiwan market: Panasonic to roll out 1080p 37-inch LCD TV

Panasonic Taiwan will soon launch a 1080p 37-inch LCD TV in Taiwan at price tag of less than NT$60,000 (NT$1,829), according to today's Economic Daily News (EDN). The model will be the first full high-definition (HD) LCD TV introduced by Panasonic Taiwan in the local market, said the paper.

Panasonic Taiwan will push LCD TVs for the 37-inch-and-smaller segment, but for the 42-inch-and-larger TV market, PDP (plasma display panel) TV will be its focus, said the paper.

Wow. It's amazing how much power they can pack into such a thin plasma television. The only question I have is.."Does it get any bigger and powerful than this?"Panasonic Taiwan began offering a 37-inch PDP TV model locally in mid-2006 at NT$59,900, according to the company. Panasonic Taiwan started assembling PDP TVs in Taiwan at the end of 2005 to offer a more aggressive pricing.
