BREAKING: A 3DTV at CES. But Panasonic's flagship plasma, the VT30, absolutely had us drooling. And the little accompaniment "tablet" that matches has us intrigued—an added TV awning is added good, right? We achievement it works as advertised.
If history is any indicator, we accept the activity this gorgeous, additional gen claret will be the 3D set to exhausted this year. Panasonic plasmas accept been outstanding performers, but they attending like, well, crap. The VT30 series—as able-bodied as the blow of the 2011 claret line-up—get a continued bare makeover, including thinner bezels and a chic metal bands framing the individual bottle area design. The VT30 will appear in two models, a 65-inch and 55-inch version, and will cover a rejiggered Viera Connect.

The new Viera Connect, which we achievement will not be as apathetic and acid as the endure Viera software, is app-ed the hell out. Apps! APPS! You'll be able to buy them on the Viera Connect Market. The accepted suspects are all here. Netflix, Hulu, Facebook, Skype, sports streaming—Panasonic, like anybody else, wants you to be able to ankle at the aforementioned things on your TV as your computer or smartphone. Games are aswell an option, application any Bluetooth-compatible bold pad, although the offerings are a little austere at the moment—other than a antagonism game, titles like "Chess" and "Reversi" aren't absolutely Xbox-killers. Although it ability be appealing abundant just accession "our TV is a abundance accession of apps and internet," we're not mad at any TV that makes it easier to beck movies. At this point it's just accession allotment of the pack, but not such a bad backpack to be follow.
A potentially air-conditioned accession to the animated new Viera is a—drumroll—tablet. The Viera Tablet. A bit of a misnomer, really, as it's added of a adored limited ascendancy than a tablet. It shares the book artful (rectangularity!), but, admitting active Android, it's meant alone to use with your TV. Like a little acquaintance for your TV. Panasonic says the tab lite will let you watch TV contest from alternating angles (ie sports), or yield a breach from the big awning and watch your affairs on the go (read: on the toilet). Whether this functionality will plan with all TV shows or just the Viera apps isn't clear—and we'll accept to delay a while to acquisition out, as the book is Japan alone until an alien time after this year.
Plus! Chat with your accompany while you're watching. This seems like overkill. If I'd like to allocution about The Real Housewives of Atlanta while I'm watching it, I'll apparently be on my laptop or texting. That aside, an added awning could be sweet, if accomplished well.
