Unveiled today at the 2008 International Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas.


Panasonic unvels 150-inch HDTV

A 150-inch high-definiton plasma TV unveiled by Panasonic is the world's largest to date...

The plasma panel features an 8.84 million pixel image resolution. Its screen is the equivalent of nine 50-inch sets, with an effective viewing area of 11 feet, the company said. It's a step up from Panasonic's 103-inch version, which cost $70,000 when it launched. The company did not say in a news release how much the 150-inch panel will cost.

Also launching this Thursday is Tata Motor's much-awaited (but well-kept secret - has ANYONE seen a picture of this car?) $2500 car - the "cheapest" car on earth!

Welcome more pollution & traffic jams in India. As if we needed more! (
Even this Reuters blog post asks - Can cars get too cheap?)
