Two new Pioneer plasmas
Pioneer is releasing two new plasma HDTV sets in Japan: the first is the PDP-A507HX, a 50-inch model that is nevertheless limited to a native resolution of 1365x768, displaying video in 720p. The PDP-A427HX is also capable of 720p, but has its native resolution restricted even further, stopped at 1024x768. Each set does have HDMI, DVI and USB ports however, and benefits from Pioneer's PURE Black Panel and PURE Drive II technologies, which are said to improve contrast and color. The 427 is 450,000 yen ($3,786), while the 507 is 560,000 yen ($4,712). [via Akihabara News]
