IGN has a somewhat interesting interview with Jeff Cove of Panasonic. They mention, for example, that some Panasonic 1080p plasmas will probably be making their way to America soon. They hope to have a 1080p HDMI input (I assume Mr. Cove meant input, because he actually said output) on their TV by the end of the year. They also mention burn-in as a topic. Mr. Cove said that plasmas used to suffer more from burn-in than they do now with today’s technologies.

The interview is five pages long, in case you want to check it out:
