    Holy ----!!! I'm still trying to set aside for my 55" upgrade at the end of the summer. I can't imagine how I'd get a billboard-sized plasma through my front door.

    there's no way, it was like 10 feet wide and 6 feet tall, you'd have to knock out a wall to get that in most houses.

    But I thought that plasma was dead.
    I wonder what that thing must weight. How many friends would you need to help you set that up.
    My 106" projector screen was cake.

    If you also consider that Plasma has to stay upright, getting 6' inside of a regular doorway isn't such an easy task. Of course, people buying that TV probably don't have regular sized doorways.

    WTF?! Dude. Step away from the meds. Turn off the Sci-fi channel. Go out into the world and meet some people.

    yes i'm sure the FCC (or whoever) would allow Panasonic to build a TV that can create "a new sun in your living room" and turn your kids into some kind of mutant fish creatures.

    and plasma isn't dead, it will outlast LCD once OLED hits the market as a lower cost alternative. LCD being inferior in PQ to both plasma and OLED with fade into memory.
