This is the biggest plasma screen TV in the whole world - it's just in front of the escalator on the 4th floor of Yodobashi Camera in Akiba. At 103" (2.4m x 1.9m) it's absolutely HUGE!

...and so is the price: 5,600,000 yen! That's £40,000, or about US$60,000!

Mind you, it does have 6 video inputs, 4 HDMI ports ... and they'll give you a ¥3000 yen discount if you trade in your old TV (bargain!)

Running this baby will set you back ¥23,000 (US$260) in annual electricity bills, plus of course you'll have to pay to have a two metre hole knocked out of your living room wall. Or, just buy 4 of them and put a roof on top - and live in it!
