Hitachi Rolls Out First 1080 Line 42" Plasma

Hitachi last week introduced a 1024 x 1080 resolution 42" plasma, the first of its kind to offer 1080 vertical lines of resolution. At 1.1 megapixels, it's not a 1080p model, but it should provide a picture quality improvement to viewers watching 1080i HD content on networks such as CBS or HBO.

The new 42HDS69 will retail for $2,499 while its big brother 55HDS69 will list for $4,299.

PC Magazine has more.
