While some say otherwise, Sony is placing its bets that bigger is, in fact, better when it shows off a new LCD television at CES 2006 in January. The company has developed an 82-inch display, which will further prove that TFT displays can reach sizes attained by plasma and rear-projection televisions.

Japanese daily Nihon Keizai Shimbun first reported on Sony’s plans, but no other details of the TV have been announced. Samsung introduced a similar 82-inch behemoth at CeBIT in March, which boasted 1920×1080 pixels and 1080p HD support. Sony actually worked with Samsung on that TV, and is now ready to demo one of its own.
