Panasonic gets their 103 inch plasma into NYC’s City Hall
Panasonic is making their presence felt in NYC’s newly renovated City Hall building in a big way. How big you might ask? How about in the form of their flagship 103 inch 1080p plasma television set? The company has donated both a massive TH-103PH9UK 103 inch plasma television set and a Panasonic BD-10A Blu-ray standalone player to New York City. The 103 inch display (model TH-103PH9UK) will help Mayor Bloomberg monitor news and playback other video content in high definition. The HDTV will also display real time 311 call statistics and live video feeds from NYC-TV’s City Drive Live traffic cameras.
Mayor Bloomberg is quoted as saying “Panasonic has been a great corporate citizen, and I would like to thank them for their generous donation”.
