Matsushita shows 103-inch plasma
Top seller of flat-screen TVs beats Samsung record; gives no indication when item will hit shelves.
TOKYO (Reuters) - Matsushita Electric Industrial, the maker of Panasonic products, said Thursday it has developed a prototype of a 103-inch plasma display panel, the world’s largest such screen.
The prototype, which will be on display at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, appears to put Matsushita slightly ahead of South Korea’s Samsung Electronics for bragging rights over who can develop the biggest flat-panel TV.
Samsung grabbed headlines at last year’s CES by unveiling a 102-inch plasma display prototype. Neither company has made clear when or if these monster screens will actually reach store shelves or at what price.
Samsung boasts the largest plasma TV now on the market, having started sales of an 80-inch model in South Korea in October for about $130,000.
