Hmmm, I thought I'd calculate the pixel size based on the following
information:

"Samsung SDI has developed what it claims is the world's largest PDP
(plasma display panel), measuring 102 inches diagonally."

"480i - This resolution is used by Standard Definition TV (SDTV), and
provides a vertical resolution (lines per frame) of 480 interlaced and
a horizontal resolution of 704, for a total of 337,920 pixels."

"1080i - This resolution is used by High Definition TV (HDTV), and
provides a vertical resolution (lines per frame) of 1080 interlaced
and a horizontal resolution of 1920, for a total of 2,073,600 pixels."

The width of the display is:

102 x [16 / sqrt (16^2 + 9^2)] = 88.9" = 2258mm

Therefore pixel size = 1.18 x 1.18mm

In SDTV TV mode each "pixel" is about 3mm square.
