Sony to introduce 82-inch LCD at CES 2006
The Register out of the UK notes that Sony plans to unveil an 82-inch LCD in Las Vegas in two weeks. This matches the one that Samsung introduced in March 2005, but knowing Sony, I expect it will be different. Here's hoping it matches the quality of the 40-inch Bravias that we've seen.
But the real question will be, "What's the price?" Given that we currently have 65-inch plasmas selling for about $9,100, an 82-inch using similar pricing would be around $12,000. But at these sizes, all bets are off. After all, Samsung's 102-inch monster plasma shown at CES 2005 was rumored to cost more than $100,000.
