Worldwide Plasma Display 20082012 Forecast and Analysis

This IDC study looks at the worldwide market for plasma displays. It includes a market forecast from 2008 to 2012 split by region and screen size. In addition, it provides 2007 historical market share information for PDPs in the U.S. market and worldwide. Despite a widespread doom-and-gloom sentiment echoing throughout the TV industry regarding plasma's future prospects, we maintain that this flat-panel technology will continue to improve in performance and reliability and move millions of units out the door through 2012."That said, plasma's unit shipment volume will be but a fraction of LCD's, and its revenue landscape will be one of erosion beginning this year, amounting to just under $18 billion by 2012."
