Pioneer Killing Off 42 Inch Plasma TV's

In yet another strategic partnership between high definition display manufacturers, Pioneer will no longer be producing 42-inch plasma displays, instead purchasing panels 42-inches and lower from Matsushita (parent company of Panasonic) or Hitachi. It will instead focus on panels 50-inches and larger, ending production of 42-inch panels in March of 2009. Looks like we can expect some big-ass, high-end Kuros in the near future.
