Panasonic TH-65PX600U - Product Information

The transition to digital television is in full swing. Congress has set a deadline of February 2009 for the complete switchover from analog to digital broadcasting, HDTV prices are now more affordable, the amount of on-air HDTV programming is growing, and this year has seen the arrival of High Definition optical disc formats. All of these factors have contributed to a growth in the sale of digital televisions. The Consumer Electronics Association recently reported that DTV sales were up 101 percent in the first quarter of 2006, compared with 2005. It also conducted a study in which 49 percent of polled consumers say their next TV will be a flat panel. The question that faces consumers is which type of flat panel will that be?

The emergence of higher-quality video sources like HDTV, DVD and Blu-ray Disc has not only affected the type of TV that people purchase; it has affected the screen size. The IDC research group predicts that, by 2009, 57 percent of TVs sold will be larger than 35 inches. Big-screen viewing is no longer relegated solely to dedicated home theater spaces but has found its way into the living room, as well. Compared with other new digital display technologies, Plasma offers the best combination of picture performance, price, and form factor at these larger screen sizes that consumers crave.

Panasonic's vision of the digital future is driven by the needs and aspirations of our business customers and millions of consumers around the world who use our products every day. We share their dream to live a fuller life by providing ways of working smarter and enjoying the rewards of technological advances.

As we move forward together with our customers into the uncharted future of the 21st century with the prospect of future technologies and systems yet to be thought of, Panasonic's standards are still firmly grounded in the philosophy of company founder Konosuke Matsushita. He began our journey in 1918 by inventing a two-socket light fixture. Profound in its import yet elegantly simple, Konosuke Matsushita's breakthrough led to what is now one of the world's largest electronics companies. As he built Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd., he never lost sight of the importance of putting the needs of his customers and the public first.

Panasonic will continue its Customer First tradition of creating new products that resolve the challenges in business and personal life, helping us all enjoy more of what life has to offer. The name Panasonic is synonymous with innovation, quality, performance and ease of use. We look forward to a bright and shining technological future, and to playing a leading role in the digitally networked society, propelled by the creativity and dedication of our employees here and around the world.
