Plasma displays now outsell rear-projection TVs -- except in the US
Tags: HDTV, LCD, Plasma, Panasonic, LG, Samsung, 1080p
ExtremeTech notes today that plasma displays outsell rear projection TVs everywhere except the US. Here, apparently, we're addicted to rear projection's everyday low prices. Still, with plasma sales up 89% year over year and rear-projection falling 17 percent year over year, it's only a matter of time. And of course, plasma is under attack by LCD technology as well, so plasma's king-of-the-hill status may not last long.
