With news that the Chinese government are planning to trial a couple of channels including a trial broadcast of the 2012 Olympic Games, manufacturers of enabled
TV's in the country have started an aggressive price war due to the expected high demand!
TV in
China is huge with an estimated 95% of the population owning at least one
television in their household, not to mention the number of officers, bars, coffee shops and other business which use large
LCD TV's for promotion and entertainment!
With such a huge market and possible growth big brand
TV makers such as Haier, Haisense, Skyworth and
Konka have slashed
3D TV prices by as much as 50%!
For an example a 40-42-inch LED

5000 Yuan ($786) for a 40-inch 3D TV.
