On today's WGN News, I got a preview of high-end electronics retailer Bang & Olufsen's latest creation - the BeoVision 4, a 103" Plasma HDTV. Aside from the 600 pound motorized stand that turns the mammoth screen 20 degrees in either direction, the television boasts numerous other features - even a small calibration camera that descends from the upper lip of the screen to automatically calibrate your white balance. You can read more about it here. Details on how you can see the TV in person this Thursday, as well as a look at some other giant televisions on the market, after the jump....

As for other Giant Screens, check these out:
Panasonic TH-103PF9UK, 103" Plasma HDTV
Much like the BeoVision 4, this bad boy boasts a 103" Plasma screen. It doesn't have the same motorized stand as the Beo, but it clocks in a lot cheaper at just $77,000. Chump change, right? Read more about it here.
Sharp LB-1085, 108" LCD HDTV
Sharp has been known to wow with their Aquos LCD televisions, but this monster is just ridiculous. Standing over 7 feet tall, this LCDTV beats out the Beo and Panasonic with a 108" screen, though it's LCD technology and not Plasma. Read more about it in Engadget.
