Since 2004, the Microdisplay Projection TV (MD-PTV) is increasing its recognition as the third thin TV, following the PDP and LCD TV. The MD-PTV is slimmer than the 20� CRT-TV with a depth of about 400mm for the 50� model. With advantages such as the �large screen� size (up to 70�), the fact that many models are equipped to offer 720p, and the �lower prices� compared to the FPD, MD-PTV growth rate is expected to be high. This growth rate will make it highly competitive with the other FPDs.
The low pricing of these products is also accelerating in 2005; by the end of the year, it is expected that there will be no price difference among them for the specifications of 42� and 720p. Even for the 50� class, the low price range of HD PDPs (High Definition Plasma Displays) is expected to be between $3,000 and $3,500, so there will be price competition between MD-PTVs and HD PDPs.
A new 122-page report from Techno Systems Research Co., Ltd. includes market analysis, market share of PTV, price comparisons, cost simulation for 2004-2009, and key device trends for PTV.
