Hitachi to Introduce Super Thin TV's in 2010...

Hitachi Ltd. (HIT). The Japanese electronics giant said today it will introduce a 10-millimeter (mm) thin plasma display panel TV in 2010 in a bid to boost the competitiveness of its flat TV business operations. The thickness is less than a third of the 35mm-thin PDP TVs the manufacturer plans to launch next year. Capitalizing on these new "super-thin" models, Hitachi is targeting to raise its share of the world's PDP TV market to 10% in the fiscal year to March 2011, from an estimated 6 percent in the year to March 2009, it said.

Hitachi will also introduce a 15mm-thin liquid crystal display (LCD) panel TV by 2012, slimmer than the 19-mm model it plans to launch next year. It will also launch a 3mm-thin organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display TV by 2012, the company said.
