Samsung TV 6.5 mm Thick

A new model of TV at Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2009 in Las Vegas

The famously massive trade show, which wraps up today, had long been a place where TV manufacturers compete for bragging rights over who has the biggest screen, but thin is evidently the new large. Panasonic showed off a prototype set that was 8.8 millimeters thick; Samsung Electronics showed off a TV that measured in at 6.5 millimeters. Such developments, of course, are great news for those eager to finally reclaim so many wasted cubic centimeters of space atop their entertainment centers.
