Saw a news regarding Pioneer will pullout from manufacturing plasma panel as early as this year. they will concentrate on tv assembly and buy plasma panel from panasonic.
i wonder wether the quality will be similar?

ya very sad news -  but still okay, they will still make 50inches and above. I think for those that can afford to spend top dollars, they will buy the 50inches anyway sad.gif
TOKYO (Reuters) - Pioneer Corp will stop making 42-inch plasma panels and instead buy panels in that size and smaller from Panasonic maker Matsushita Electric Industrial or Hitachi Ltd to turn around its loss-making flat TV business, the Asahi newspaper said.

Japanese consumer and auto electronics maker Pioneer will end output of such panels at a plant in Kagoshima prefecture in southern Japan as early as by March 2009, the paper said in the report on Saturday.

It will focus on making panels 50 inches or larger at other plants, the Asahi said.

It would be Pioneer's latest step away from a vertically integrated business model, in which manufacturers conduct production of key parts as well as assembly of finished products, after its decision last year to buy liquid crystal display panels from Sharp Corp to start offering LCD TVs.

Pioneer's plasma business has been struggling to compete with larger rivals with better production efficiency such as Matsushita and LG Electronics Inc

Pioneer has a target to sell 480,000 plasma TVs in this business year, ending on March 31, less than one-tenth of Matsushita's sales target of 5 million units.

Pioneer bought the Kagoshima plant from NEC Corp and now wants NEC to buy it back, the Asahi said.

A Pioneer spokesman said its flat TV strategy will become available when it unveils a mid-term business plan in early March, but nothing specific has been decided.

Shares in Pioneer were up 3.8 percent by early afternoon, outperforming the Tokyo stock market's electrical machinery index IELEC, which rose 2.2 percent.

No no no, not this news. This one is yesterdays news. The one that I read (I think from cnbc and cnnmoney) is that they will pull out all together from making plasma panel, wether 42 or 50 or larger. they will instead buy the panel from matsushita (panasonic) instead. Try look in avs forum.

Guys,

Check out the ad in the Star (Metro pg27) from Best Denki.

Samsung 70" Full HD at RM199,999.

I dunno whether this is the best LCD but me thinks it is definately the most expensive.

Anyone wanna do bulk?  brows.gif

I got the source from Pioneer Sole Distributor in KL ... Pioneer stop Plasma business ... you will see LCD end this year ... after that Pioneer out from TV business ... I will get full information from the source soon

Definitely your source is wrong. Its all over the web talking about pioneer latest press release regarding this. They will stop producing plasma panel after gen 9 kuro (currently its gen 8 in malaysia. Gen 9 will come out sometimes in june/july in US). After that they will buy plasma panel from panasonic, and assemble all the kuro themselves. The kuro will always be there albeit different panel. Unless pioneer dont want to distribute kuro in Malaysia. In that case, vmad.gif . I, like you really admire kuro and plan to get it.
You right though about pioneer making LCD, but I certainly doubt it will be here in malaysia by end of this year. You know la, malaysia, everything is slow motion....
