Panasonic Corp. has previewed its flagship VIERA PZ850 series, reputedly the industryâs first IP-enabled television. This latest series feature four models: the 46-inch class TH-46PZ850, the 50-inch class TH-50PZ850, the 58-inch class TH-58PZ850 and the 65-inch class TH-65PZ850.
Panasonicâs IP-enabled televisions offer a technology that provides access to on-line content directly from the television with VIERA CAST technology. The PZ850 series also features a Pro Setting Menu, allowing the consumer to access professional calibration software; an improved native resolution contrast ratio of 30,000:1 and a dynamic ratio of 1,000,000:1; Digital Cinema Color Re-Mastering; 24p native reproduction; Game Mode; an SD memory Card slot; RS-232C connection; four HDMI connections; increased luminous efficiency; lead free panels; 100,000 hours to half brightness and a PC input.
Digital Cinema Color Re-Mastering is another technology that allows for color reproduction, enabling VIERA displays to reproduce the essential colors for viewing movies. 24p native reproduction, which negates the need for 3:2 pulldown, resulting in a smoother picture, says Panasonic.

Pioneer has previewed a new design concept for its KURO flat screen TV: a 50-inch KURO screen that is capable of displaying absolute black while measuring a mere 9 mm thick.
According to the company, their âExtreme Contrast Conceptâ is the first plasma display that can achieve absolute black with no measurable light emitting from the display when reproducing black. Pioneer says they have succeeded in reproducing absolute black by achieving zero-idling luminance in more than six million cells. Whatâs more, Pioneer says the KURO extreme contrast concept has a contrast ratio that is literally beyond measurement, rendering the debate of contrast ratio irrelevant.
At nine millimeters thick â Pioneer says this is the worldâs thinnest in 50-inch class as of January 2008. It is extremely light weight as well at 18.6 kg, which means that it can easily be wall-mounted.

Hitachiâs Ubiquitous Platform Systems Division has unveiled the CP-A100 3LCD projector designed for use in the business and education sectors.
The CP-A100 features a short throw distance: at 1.6 feet you can project a 60 inch image. Hitachi claims that this not only prevents image obstruction, but also means there are no shadows interfering with the image and no light in the presenterâs face. Moreover, the CP-A100 can be placed vertically as well as horizontally, as well as inverted for ceiling mount applications, making positioning of the projector more convenient.
Hitachi also pointed out the network connectivity of the CP-A100, which allows for simultaneous monitoring and control of several projectors from a remote location. This is claimed to be beneficial in schools and large corporate environments, where projectors are located throughout a facility and the monitoring of each projector is a time-consuming ordeal.
Additionally, the CP-A100âs performance stands alone among competitive models. It offers a brightness of 2,500 ANSI lumens, XGA resolution and a 500:1 contrast ratio. The CP-A100 further addresses the issue of security with functions such as multilevel PIN locks, a security bar and a Kensington slot.
