My 1st post ... New Pioneer plasma TV's???

[jon s]

Wrong... Pioneer is no longer making the glass panels for the Plasma sets. They are being outsourced to Panasonic. Pioneer will still be making the electronics for their plasma sets. they claim that all the glass is the same and it's their proprietary electronics that make the kuro sets so impressive.

Pioneer's next gen sets should be out at the end of summer. and according to those who saw them at CES this year, the jump in contrast with the new line is even more noticeable.
