Pacific Media Associates Reports that flat panel HDTV sales resumed growth in March. The 40 to 45 inch plasma and 30 to 35 inch LCD were the most popular. Unit sales for flat panel televisions and business displays in North America grew in March by more than 12% over February. Sales revenues increased almost 5% for the same period. "After holding fairly steady since October, average street prices across all sizes dropped nearly 7%, in spite of tighter supplies than a year ago," according to Rosemary Abowd, PMA Vice President. "Year-on-year unit sales continued to rise, up 110% over March 2005." "The biggest gains were posted by the 40- to 45-inch plasma segment and the 30- to 35-inch LCD segment. Both gained about two points in unit sales share, and each accounts for about 30% of total unit sales," according to Abowd. Panasonic recovered the number one spot in unit sales, but Pioneer retained the lead in terms of total revenues. The Pioneer PRO-1130HD plasma and Sony KDL-V40XBR10 LCD were essentially tied for first place as the most popular consumer models, each with about a 7% share.
