I'm excited to see what will show up at CES this year. I personally don't care too much about how thin the panel is, but if they can improve upon their Kuro black levels and make that available, I'd be very interested.
 
My father and his associates marketed pioneer products in ernest in the United States some 42 plus years ago and they spoke of this this goal then. Here i sit as an adult and although Pioneer went factory rep along time ago, seeing their vision of what they thought Pioneer would bring to the table coming to fruition is most gratifying
 
this goes to show how far ahead pioneer plasmas are, LCD's will never reach what they have achieved using plasma.
 
I saw some photos of this on engadget's CES coverage and the "true blacks" claim certainly appears to be true. They showed the new Kuro up against another panel, and I first thought it must be an LCD because of the difference in black levels, but the other panel was actually a current-gen kuro. Exciting!

thats is sick dude, current kuros's are awsume but your saying the difference is huge, to actually mistake the current kuros to an LCD? damn... impressive!

The picture I was referring to is here. The others in the gallery are a lot more of what I'd expect from a current-gen Kuro. I guess the camera settings really exaggerated it.

yes but the difference is significant, current kuros' contrast ratio isnt exactly low @ 20'000:1.

that is true static value to all those with LCD TV's.
