1. Sales of large LCD TVs surpass plasma sales
According to the market-research firm Pacific Media Associates, 37-inch LCD
flat-panel TV monitors have overtaken similar size plasma displays,
capturing 51 percent of the market in May 2005 and 57 percent in June 2005.
The increase in (37-inch-display) market share has been driven by the
precipitous drop in LCD TV prices over the past few months. For example, the
average price for an LCD TV in March 2005 was $4,138, but by June that
number had dropped more than a thousand dollars, to $3,126, reaching price
parity with plasmas of the same size. The trend, says Pacific Media, is for
LCDs to out-sell plasmas when the two technologies go head-to-head at the
same price. Plasmas still hold a lead in the 42-inch-display market, but
it's only a matter of time before Asian manufacturing plants are cranking
out cost-competitive 42-inch screens, the analysts say, continuing the LCD
juggernaut.
