Inside the metal box in this horribly poor iPhone photograph is a lovely new 50-inch TV. My weekend will (hopefully) be spent setting it up, plugging in the Xbox 360 and continuing my journey through Rapture with some Bioshock 2. Anyone want to guess what type of TV it is?
I’m also planning on finishing some of the jobs I started around the house months ago, like hiding my front wall-mounted speaker cables. I know it sounds like fun, but trust me – it’s not. Does anybody else find that weekends just aren’t long enough?

Friday, February 19, 2010 at 4:36 PMlol yeah!
hard to tell the brand, but clearly they are taking minimalist design to the next level!
I’m gonna guess… Samsung? maybe they don’t do a 50″ … Panasonic?

Friday, February 19, 2010 at 5:38 PMI’d hazard a guess that it’s a 3D TV…

Friday, February 19, 2010 at 5:39 PMDare I ask why it comes in such a huge metal box? that seems somewhat like overkill..

Friday, February 19, 2010 at 6:17 PMOK, I’ll bite. Is it a Panasonic 3D Viera Plasma? Don’t forget to stock up on ibuprofen.

The TV is set up and running already…. just with the augmented(twisted?) reality it looks amazingly like a steel box on wheels ;)

Monday, February 22, 2010 at 9:28 AMOkay, most of you were spot on – to a point. It was Panasonic’s TH-P50V10A 50 inch plasma. No 3D, but a damn fine looking picture…
