Plasma makers are learning how to make higher resolutions at smaller sizes though, so I bet it won't be long. Maybe, though I’m not keeping track.

But I believe all 42" Plasmas are not true HDTVS. A true HDTV starts at 50". Correct me if I am wrong. But I believe all 42″ Plasmas are not true HDTVS. A true HDTV starts at 50″.

It doesn't really specify how many pixels are in each row. To assume 1280 means you're assuming pixels are square, which they're not. BTW, all 42" plasmas have 1024x768 (it's a pioneer/NEC panel).

Norcent advertising it as HD, or this line from the article: "Norcent's PT-4240HD achieves 1024 X 768 resolution and a 3000:1 contrast ratio on a wide 42" plasma display.
