Panasonic slashes price of 103-inch plasma
Finding itself in the odd position of selling a suddenly low-end 103-inch 1080p plasma, Panasonic has responded by cutting the price of the professional model TH-103PF10UK by $20,000 to a mere $50,000. Despite waiting over two years to move to a much more reasonable, mass market price the company has racked up over 6,000 installs of the model, with displays starring at the Democratic National Convention, as virtual air hockey tables, on NBC's Sunday Night Football and Beijing Olympics studio, TNT's NBA Playoffs set and more. This seems like a good time to mention the display is also capable of being matrixed in a 5 x 5 video wall -- and at these prices, we can't see why anyone wouldn't. Of course, they could just be clearing stock to bring out the 150-inch behemoth or a more home oriented TH-103PZ800 model Stateside, so weigh your options carefully.

We actually sell, and DISPLAY, this set in our showroom. We show it for $49,999.99, so it's actually LESS than $50k here! If you're ever in metro-Detroit and want to see it shoot me a message, I don't want to shamelessly plug where I work.

I wonder what the energy usage of this TV is? Is this why California is pissed?

OK Panasonic, lets see a model in the high 70/low 80 inch range for $20,000.
LG had a consumer 70" for $15,000 that came out almost 2 years ago, how about kicking it up a bit?

black levels are not as good as Pioneer Kuro, but for this price, you're paying for the size, delivery, and installation services! The pq is secondary.....
