Unfortunately a Flat Panel/Flat Earth mentality prevails in
Australia. However Arasor the Oz company that devised Laser TV is hopeful that the LaserVue will sell in Australia. Mitsubishi Electric Australia is unfortunately uncommital at this stage. They only seem interested in selling front projectors. Perhaps they need to be persuaded otherwise?

Chris, why do you think Oz Plasmas and LCDs are any better than US models? I can tell you that quite often they're not. I'm sure the 65" LaserVue would more than match your Panasonic TH65PZ800A and consume only about a quarter of the power in the process.

Why do they need a distributor? Mitsubishi Electric are already here. The problem is that some clever dick decided two or three years ago that there were NO Australians who wanted rear-pro TV’s. Just about the time I wanted to buy one. So Mitsubishi, which still sells rear-pro sets in the US, aren’t likely to bring it here. But you can hope, if you like.

While I don’t doubt that the LaserVue is probably the best TV ever sold in America, I’m sure it doesn’t even come close to the picture quality that you get in LCDs and plasmas here in Australia. Yah it’s big, but so is a Panasonic TH65PZ800A.
