LG 37” LCD Shipping Next Month

Plasma TV prices aren’t dropping as fast as I was hoping for, but maybe with some competition from similar sized LCD screens we’ll start seeing lower prices. LG.Philips has begun volume production and shipment of its latest TFT-LCD panel for TV applications-the LC370W01 (pictured), a 37-inch wide display. In addition, the company expects to begin shipping the LC320W01, a 32-inch wide display for TV applications, within a month. Both the 32- and 37-inch wide displays feature LG.Philips LCD’s Super-In-Plane Switching (S-IPS) technology, for wider viewing angle and higher color fidelity by minimizing color and gamma shift. In addition, both displays have a quick response time of 8 ms, resolution of 1366 x 768, brightness of 500cd/m2 and a contrast ratio of 550:1. Great for playing fast motion video or video games. I don’t have any pricing yet, but I don’t think we’ll see anything below $4k this year… this is one time I’m hoping I’m wrong.
