Panasonic, Best Buy kick off 3D TV sales (photos)
Panasonic sold its first 3D-capable TV at a Manhattan Best Buy, and invited the media along to watch.
The grand 3D coalition
Panasonic used a New York City Best Buy store to launch its 3D TV sales for 2010. In addition to executives from both companies, representatives from Fox Video and DirecTV were also present.
Fox 3D movies are coming home
Mary Daily, executive vice president of marketing for Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment takes the stage to announce that "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs" will be the company's debut 3D Blu-ray disc later in 2010. However, she said she had no information on when Fox's "Avatar" would hit Blu-ray (in 2D or 3D).
Pulling the trigger on 3D
A Manhattan couple, identified as "Brad and Ashley," became the first customers to buy the Panasonic 3D bundle.
Media circus
The event was well publicized by Best Buy and Panasonic. Beyond the usual "gadget press," plenty of mainstream media outlets--including local and national TV--were on hand to document the story.
Ka-ching
With the 3D TV, 3D glasses, and 3D Blu-ray player, the total came to $2,900--more than $3,100 after New York city and state taxes.
