[CES 2008] If you can’t have the largest plasma TV display in the world, then there is always another accolade you can gun for – the thinnest across the entire globe. That’s exactly what Pioneer aims for with its 9mm thin HD plasma TV that will be unveiled at CES 2008. 9mm translates to a wee bit under 1cm, so one can just imagine how thin the display must be. I suppose it ought to come with the sign “Lovely to see, nice to hold; once broken, considered sold” wherever this svelte plasma display is sold in the future. More details to come at CES 2008. Check out the video of it in action.
