As much as we love plasmas image quality , theres no denying that they e power hogs . However, at CES 2009 weve seen several plasma manufacturers showing off new energy-efficient panels. Like Panasonics NeoPDP plasmas, the Samsung PNB550 series of plasmas claim to consume nearly 50 percent less energy compared to past models. Here are the full details. Key features of the Samsung PNB550 series: Nearly 50 percent less energy consumption compared to past models Ultra FilterBright antiglare screen Real Movie (24fps mode) Real 600Hz processing Energy Star 3.0 compatible 50-, 58-, and 63-inch models Available in first half of 2009   Like Panasonic, Samsung is touting "600Hz processing." Heres our effort to staunch consumer confusion: ignore this feature. It basically means plasmas have very good motion resolution, but as usual, its very difficult to discern the difference for most people. Samsung also announced a higher-end series of plasmas, the PNB850 series. It includes several step-ups, including a better antiglare screen and Internet@TV functionality over Ethernet or Wi-Fi (with an adapter).
