Panasonic has announced plans to increase production of its 3D HDTV sets, due to higher-than-expected demand.
The company’s latest 3D-capable plasma line, the VT25, arrived here in the U.S. last month and according to Panasonic’s TV business head, Hirotoshi Uehara, the launch saw a “very strong reaction.”
These comments come after the electronics firm gleefully announced that following the products launch its U.S. unit allocation sold out in just one week.
In a Financial Times report (registration required), Mr. Uehara provides more details, adding that Panasonic’ plasma panel factory has seen its production capacity increased by 30 percent to handle the unexpectedly high sales numbers. The increased production capacity will hopefully fulfill U.S. demand, and allow the company to prepare for the TV’s Japanese and European launch over the next two months.
