Samsung,
LG and others may be readjusting expectations and scaling back output, but Sharp -- of the
many new LCD plants -- still plans to sell 11 million TVs in the fiscal year, according to its prez, Mikio Katayama. To that end, expect the new
DX line to cross over to North America by year-end (packing a Blu-ray player in place of the Japanese edition's recorder) and European and Asian markets next year. Whatever the state of the economy, expect the battle on store shelves to continue throughout this year and well into the next.
