World's Thinnest, Biggest and Weirdest TVs
Every January in Las Vegas, the latest and greatest, thinnest, biggest, and weirdest new TVs make their debuts at the annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES). More than 150,000 people descend on the City of Sin to see what consumer electronics manufacturers have in store for the upcoming year. Switched has been roaming the floors of the Las Vegas Convention Center, looking at TV after TV after TV. The big story this year is super-slim TVs, some of which are literally almost paper thin. But as usual, we found some other superlatives. Check out our gallery for the latest, techiest, biggest, most expensive, cheapest, and weirdest TVs out there.
Okay, so how mind-boggling is this 150-inch plasma TV from Panasonic? It's one of a kind, and we don't know how much it will cost when it hits stores, but we're sure you'll need a mighty big McMansion to get this in your living room. (That's Josh, by the way, who's 5'10". You can see a video of him being dwarfed by the TV here).

I found it entertaining to read peoples comments when they get mad about something so irrelevent as a TV. I do agree that more money and effort should be spent on finding better ways to help our ridiculous gas prices and what not...but thats not Panasonics job. Entertaining though.

It should just fit in my double wide trailer. LOL

This is the new "Anti-thug" Plasma TV by Panasonic. Kinda hard to break-in and carry this puppy off.
DeniseJan 9th 2008 2:56AM

PLAZMA TV'S ONLY LAST A FEW YEARS AND THEN THEY BURN OUT. SO RUN OUT AND BUY ONE THEN IN THREE OR FOUR YEARS WE CAN THROUGH IT AWAY AND GO BUY ANOTHER ONE. BUT WE ARE ALL MADE OF MONEY RIGHT WHAT'S FIFTEEN OR TWENTY GRAND. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU BUT TO ME THAT'S A NEW HARLEY THAT WILL LAST A LOT LONGER THAN THAT STUPID TV.
THANKS PANASONIC FOR NOTHING YOU CAN KEEP IT
