80-Inch Samsung Plasma Goes on Sale in Korea

Would you spend $125,000 on a plasma? Samsung thinks someone will, as it recently began selling its 80-inch PDP for 130 million Korean won, or just under $125K. That model, which is the largest available for sale in the world, will be released in the U.S. in December, just in time for the holiday shopping season...yeah, right.

More from the Korea Times:

The natural follow-up question is how many 50-inch plasmas you could buy for the price of one 80-incher. Answer? 33.
