1 in 4 Households to Have HDTV by End of '06

Panasonic this week released the results of a survey showing that 26% of U.S. households either already own or plan to purchase an HDTV by the end of 2006, up from 15% one year ago. Interestingly, nearly half of the women surveyed said that the decision to buy an HDTV was theirs rather than their significant other. Not surprisingly, most men would rather purchase a bigger screen while three-quarters of women prefer a smaller one.

Here's the release from Panasonic:
