Ultra-slim 42-inch Panel from LG.Philips LCD Review
An announcement has been made by LG.Philips LCD that it plans to launch a 42-inch full HD LCD TV panel that is substantially thinner than conventional panels, at only 19.8mm, in the starting months of 2008.
This panel is 40% thinner and 10% lighter than conventional 42-inch LCD TV panels. Inspite of the fact that its slim profile, it still manages to incorporate cutting edge 120Hz technology, which eliminates motion blur; and full HD resolution, which is twice as sharp as normal HD resolution.
LG.Philips LCD used a CCFL backlight on this panel, which has helped to keep production costs lower than if it were to use a comparable LED backlight.

LG.Philips LCD will be the first company to launch an ultra slim 42-inch panel, according to a statement from the company.It ultra-slim 42-inch panel will be on display at FPD International 2007 in Yokohama, Japan, which runs from October 24 to 26.
