M21 Flat Panel has Mid-Century Roots with 21st Century Tech

Over the weekend at the Dwell on Design show in Los Angeles, Designer Joe Wilkerson displayed his newest furniture creation, the M21 Flat Panel. The name might not be that telling, but this beauty is a mid-century themed console that houses a 42" plasma screen. Apparently this updated retro-console was attracting a lot of attention at the show. And why not, the M21 Flat Panel combines the oh so trendy mid-century modern design with 21st century tech.

Pioneer's 2nd Gen Kuro Plasma HDTVs Revealed... in Europe

We can't totally figure this out, but we're trying: Pioneer Europe just promised to ship second-generation Kuro plasmas as early as June, yep TVs stated by the company to be five times better than the "best TV ever," the current Kuro plasmas. Pioneer US says that it will be announcing plasmas soon, but that its lineup will be "different" than the Euro plasma lineup seen here, understandable since these have DVB and other Eurotech not found in US TVs.

More Big News From Panasonic

It's the "my TV is bigger than yours" wars and though Samsung seems to have won the LCD part of it, Matsushita (maker of Panasonic products) is pulling a ridiculous 103-inch plasma out of its ass to take the cake at this year's CES. In Korea, Samsung has the largest plasma on the market at 80-inches and $130,200 and Matsushita started selling a 65-inch plasma for about $8600 in Japan. So, this is the biggest. Nah, nah, nah, nah nah. Only a prototype, specs are for full high def, meaning 1,920 by 1,080 pixels of resolution. More »

LG Plasma Combos Use Seagate Hard Drives

LG is now using Seagate hard drives in plasma TVs as part of a digital video recorder combo. I've seen LG's combo plasma TV the last few years at CES and I'm always drooling, so it's good to have a well-known company like Seagate helping out. LGs PY2DR series includes a 160GB hard drive which stores about 14 hours of high definition programming, and all the plasma TVs in the line include DVR functions as well. The 50" and 60" flat panel TVs come with Firewire and two memory card readers as well. More »
