LG Introduces the 71" 71PY10 - the Largest Commercialised Plasma TV (23/11/2005)

LG Electronics proudly introduces its super-large 71-inch Plasma Display, the world's first and largest commercialized product of its kind. LG overcame technological difficulties to successfully implement 1080p full high-definition (1920 x 1080) into the world's first 71-inch 16:9 Plasma TV. This technology was even considered impossible for Plasma TV when the company began to develop it.

As well as being fully HD with HDMI, the set also carries LG's famous XD Engine, for ensuring pictures of the highest quality, as well as a plethora of other technologies. LG Electronics plan to sell the 71-inch Plasma TV through targeted marketing and order-based production process.

This breakthrough was a great impact on the flat panel display industry. The Designers of the 71-inch plasma TV added extra character to the break through product by creating a luxurious gold plate model. The special model not only decorated the display itself with 24-K gold, but also its package items; a home theatre system and a terrestrial digital broadcast receiver.

This super large Plasma carries with it a super large price tag! Retailers have indicated to LG that they believe the LG 71gold plated PY10 will sell for a price in the region between 40k - 50k GBP".
