HDTV Buyers Flocking To Buy 32-Inch LCD's

While a decrease in LCD panel demand contributed to 1.6% decrease in shipments from March, such market behavior is normal for this time of the year and still represents a 29.7% year-over-year growth. Some of these numbers can be attributed to LCD computer monitors, but when it comes to LCD TV's, 32-inch models seems to be seeing the most popularity. Month to month shipments decreased 2.9% overall and 40-inch and larger panel shipments remain flat, but 32-inch panels accounted for full 40% of all LCD TV panel shipments. Why the growing trend in smaller HDTV sales? Most likely global economic concerns are causing consumers to cut back on spending, but it would seem a 32-inch flat panel TV would still represent a big dollar buy. But then again, isn't an HDTV becoming a necessity these days?
