JVC have announced that the super-slim 32-inch LCD display they released in Japan back in August will hit the US in November. The tuner-free panel measures 6.4mm (1/4-inch) deep at its thinner point, and weighs 5.7kg (12.5lbs), and will launch as the JVC LT-32WX50 in US.

It looks as though Pixel Qi are ramping up their sales pitch ready for an assault on the display market, with founder Mary Lou Jepsen pushing out a chart showing where the company's low-power panels fit.

The saga of the LCD price fixing scandal still isn’t over despite the fact that some of the world’s largest makers of LCDs have pled guilty and been fined. Some of the executives involved in the case have been sentenced to jail time. So far, LG Displays, Sharp, Chunghwa Picture Tubes, and Hitachi Displays have all pled guilty in the scheme.
Hitachi have unveiled five new HDTVs, each of which includes a 500GB hard-drive for local storage of recorded programming or downloaded content.
