Panasonic VIERA TV Includes HD Recording to SD Cards � We Like What We Hear

Panasonic is no stranger to releasing a whole slew of high powered home theater oriented products. Thankfully they are also no stranger to innovation which their brand new VIERA TV displays nicely. Dubbed the TH-L42G3, this 42-inch 1080p HDTV features an IPS panel, LED back lighting, 2 HDMI ports, VoD connectivity, an Ethernet port and much more. However, these run of the mill features are not what makes this television unique. Instead, its SD/SDHC/SDXC slot is.

This slot will allow consumers to record full HD content straight to an SD card. Of course, you�re most likely going to need to break the bank just a bit as Panasonic says a 64GB SDXC card will be able to record about 5 hours of full HD content. Better yet, you can just plug your external hard drive to the included USB slot to record content the same way � sounds pretty neat to us.

Unfortunately, there is currently no word of a North American launch with this television going on sale in Japan on February 19th for around $1,800.
