Discussions about the Pioneer KURO plasma HDTV range and color tends to be in hushed tones about the super-sets’ class-leading picture quality.  Now it might be about how well they blend into your living room, with the announcement of limited edition white and beige versions of the 50-inch 1080p KRP-500A.

Super durable tech products is not exactly a new thing. But I have to say, when I learned that the Pioneer DVR-X162J DVD Burner was dustproof, I paused for a moment. Since when was the ability to repel dust a feature? But it looks like this is a feature we can all appreciate, after all.

Anybody who’s afraid of the dark would do well to keep out of the way of Pioneer’s Kuro range of HDTVs.  Esteemed for their inky black levels, the huge display sizes have so far kept them out of most buyers’ reach.  Now, with the advent of the KRL-32V – which, as its name suggests, is a more manageable 32-inches – there’s the possibility of far more Kuro in our everyday lives.  CNET UK woke up to find a Pioneer Kuro KRL-32V on their doorstep, so they’ve done the only honorable thing and unboxed it for all to see.

XM’s upcoming portable digital satellite radio receiver, the XMp3, has turned up on Best Buy, complete with pricing and more details about the PMP’s functionality.  Now confirmed as being made by Pioneer, the XMp3 will have access to up to 170 channels of XM satellite radio for $12.95 a month, together with MP3 and WMA playback.  Most interesting, however, is the XMp3’s ability to record up to five different channels simultaneously.

Here goes another flagship Blu-ray player way out of my price range. Pioneer Electronics has rolled out a reference series Blu-ray player with industry’s most advanced audio/video components. The new Elite BDP-09FD features Blu-ray Bonusview and supports all HD audio codecs via bitstream or internal audio decoder. BD-Live is now a standard feature which was missing from their last line-up, BDP05FD and BPD51FD.

It’s not just Samsung that can do media streaming; Pioneer’s most-recent Kuro HDTVs, the PDP-6020FD and PDP-5020FD, are equipped with ethernet ports that, unlike those found on some of the new Samsungs, can actually funnel movies, music, and photos over your home network.  The televisions act as DLNA clients, and can receive content from Windows Media Player 11 or other compatible sources.  Crave had a chance for some hands-on time with the PDP-5020FD, and while the setup isn’t perfect they still seem pretty impressed.
