JVC joins monster TV set

JVC has joined the growing ranks for TV makers showing off panels in excess of 100ins.

The only problem – apart from finding a wall big and strong enough to mount this on – is that rear-projection TV technology is losing the ‘big TV’ marketing and sales war. LCD and plasma TVs are the clear leaders in large, flat TVs and even there, LCD looks likely to replace plasma in the coming years as prices continue to fall and panel sizes increase.
