They have a full line of plasma displays coming out for 2009...yet there is no promotion.<br><br>Yet if I were to say, "Awesome cyber hummingbird", to anyone who has been to Best Buy (endcap and commercials in store), looked on Samsung's website (homepage), etc., you would probably know I was talking about their new LED backlit LCD's.<br><br>All the press and promotion is being dedicated to LCD's, this is why people are forgetting about plasma.  It is a self-fulfilling prophesy.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ken]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 9:22PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Runco sticking by plasma displays]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yeah what he said....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[chuckdaly]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 9:28PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Runco sticking by plasma displays]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</guid><description><![CDATA[Isn't Runco plasma's re branded Panasonic plasma's?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kevon27]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 10:21PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Runco sticking by plasma displays]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</guid><description><![CDATA[They use to be NECs (Same as Pioneer for years) with new video boards, but now they probably are Panasonic panels.  Given that Panasonics are lean on picture controls and poor video processing, Runcos may truly add value to Panasonics panels.  Runco plasmas have consistently sold excellent plasmas,  so if Runco can get a hold of current gen panels, they will become top dog in video.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[chuckdaly]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 11:36PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Runco sticking by plasma displays]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</guid><description><![CDATA[Judging by the 103", I would have to assume so.<br><br>It would be interesting to know what, if any, modifications are made.

Since then Planar has struggled to capture the growth that they expected from the Runco brand.  Hats off to Sam Runco for selling at the peak of the market that he helped create.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Greg]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 29th 2009 12:39AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Runco sticking by plasma displays]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</guid><description><![CDATA[Plasma is junk.. and it's heavy junk to boot.

Plasma owns LCD in almost every way possible.  I love how you LCD fanboys go out and say "ohhhh plasma is so heavy"  Seriously, wtf.  Are you people carrying these TV's on your back or something?  I don't know about you, but once my TV was hung on the wall, it hasn't moved.  <br><br>A big TV will take 2 people to lift it regardless.  Have fun with your crap LCD.  Us plasma owners will enjoy are superior plasmas.  Just cuz you got suckered into buying LCD (crap), doesn't mean you have to go around on the internet bashing plasmas.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 29th 2009 9:20AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Runco sticking by plasma displays]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</guid><description><![CDATA[Plasma is junk.. and it's heavy junk to boot.  - says koehler83 (girlie man?)<br><br><br>(he must be cranky this morning)<br><br>Kuro owner here, happy with my 5020 and the perfect picture quality, few are finer.

It has no ISFFcc mode or the 2 year warranty that comes with Elites. The AR filter is the same as the Elites though.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Los]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 29th 2009 9:49AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Runco sticking by plasma displays]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2009/04/28/runco-sticking-by-plasma-displays/</guid><description><![CDATA[Good to hear!
