Panasonic to Start PDP TV Production Line in Taiwan
June 30, 2005
According to sources within Panasonic Taiwan, the company will start a PDP television production line in Taiwan, becoming the first Japanese company to do so. Panasonic will use next-generation PDP panels made by the company in Japan for production of 42-inch PDP televisions. Panasonic's entry means a threat to the two companies currently dominating the market, LG and Sampo, as prices are expected to drop because of the increasing competition.
