A little too hot as it would turn out, as they've sold about 12,000 plasma displays that are prone to
overheating. If you own a 42 or 50 inch Ambilight screen clear some time on your schedule, get out the Maxwell CD and
light some candles because you've got a date with the repairman.Here at HD Beat, we really think Philips should instead tout this as a feature, why waste time watching a Yule Log or Screen Dreams DVD when your TV can just go up in flames by itself?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Philips doesn't make any plasmas do they? all LCDs...
That would appear to be incorrect.

Man, I could have sworn those Ambilights were LCDs, weird. I thought Philips was largely vested in the LCD market and that was all they made.
My mistake.
