why no 40+ lcds from panny?

Panasonic is focused on plasma rather than LCD... and holy crap, their plasmas look great this year!
Samsung and Sharp have some nice things going on in the LCD world though.
Mr.Awax @ Jan 20th 2009 2:49PM
Because below 37", a plasma TV is becoming impossible to manufacture. Plasmas are based on small bubbles containing ... plasma. The smaller the screen, the smaller the bubbles. The smaller the bubbles, the harder it is to build the screen. This is the reason FullHD (higher res => smaller bubbles) arrived on plasma much later than on LCD.
To every screen size, Pana choses the best technology available. Below 37", LCD is the only choice available. Above 37", both plasma and LCD are available but Panasonic selected plasma. Panasonic belives that plasma provides a better image than LCDs. So do I (37" plasma from Pana).
