As someone who doesn't presently have TV in my lifestyle (we have a couple old CRTs in the basement that are unplugged, but nothing we use), I'm not sure how low prices would have to go to make me pick one up. I'm not sure that the quoted prices are low enough.
That said, it's pretty awesome that it's only a matter of time before plasmas are cheap enough to have in every room of your house, should you desire to do that.
- Hexstream 18y agoThe price cuts probably aren't targetted at people who don't use and don't want to use a TV.
- iigs 18y agoI'm not trying to be this guy: http://www.theonion.com/content/node/28694 http://www.theonion.com/content/node/28694 -- it's not something I'm serious about avoiding, my wife would love to have a decent TV, and I used to install them professionally and love the geeky aspects of home theater. I just don't know where I stand on the demand curve. I can say these big + cheap TVs would be a lot more appealing to me if they were higher resolution -- this way I could use it as a decent computer monitor as well. The size and picture quality of a 50" plasma would be great, but (for example) the Panasonic one is 1366x768. I have pretty decent eyesight, and at any distance where that panel would feel immersive I could see the individual dots.
