From metal to plastic, and now wood!

Forget fancy glass panels. LG is going environmentally friendly with its upcoming wooden plasma TV. First reported by CNET Crave UK back in late 2006, the Korean chaebol is apparently ready to ship a 60-inch model for the Korean market as early as March.

While wooden TVs may sound like a new fad for the uninitiated, a Swedish company called SWEDEX has actually beaten LG with its own line of wooden products. These range from large-screen LCD TVs and monitors to keyboards and mice.

There is one minor concern for folks here in the humid tropics, though. Does the product warranty cover the unlikely event of a termite attack?
