Are you talking about the "extreme contrast" prototype that was displayed at CES?

I wouldn't hold your breath if you're waiting for Pioneer to offer this. It could start shipping next year, but there is no firm date and I doubt Pioneer shared their proprietary technology with other manufacturers. Pioneer also showed an "extreme contrast" screen only 9 mm thick. That's the one worth waiting for, but it could be years before that type of screen is commercialized and affordable in the size you want.

And they are apparently sharing some tech development, the better to save plasma doncha know, although Pioneer is the first to actually show a prototype. The suits are saying 2009, however.
