When we say "Long live plasmas" in the era where there are speculations/gossips/rumors about the end of plasma, I think it is the "small daddy" who is instilling some hope that plasma is there to continue for some more years to come. When every one was/is shutting down their plasma line, "small daddy" has jumped leaps and bounds this year to produce one of finest plasma TVs. It is not a big thing for "big daddy" to come out with the kuro killer as already they are the pioneers in plasma, but it is a very big thing for "small daddy" to keep producing and improving it's plasma line year over year and too in the time where the plasma market is bad. I am afraid to say that "big daddy" might have contemplated to shut their entire plasma line if "small daddy" hasn't pushed their plasma aggressively.
As plasma lovers, we must first say Big Thanks to "small daddy" and "small thanks" to big daddy![]()

I agree that big daddy is taken aback by the meteoric rise of small daddy's f8500.
Thanks to small daddy ,that big daddy is forced to go for the ultimate kill with the vt60 and the legendry zt60.
Plasma has reached the deepest of blacks.
Big daddy has put the onus on small daddy to match its blacks.
Small daddy accepts the challenge to go very close to big daddy and also with a twist . It excels in brightness as well.
The day small daddy is credited with reference grade plasma by the entire world circumventing some of its picture issues , big daddy will only be in history books.
But I am afraid that before small daddy generates a reference plasma, oled daddy with the promised infinite blacks may sweep the world.
