The Consumer Electronic Association's 11th Annual Holiday Sales and Forecast Survey also found that the number one desired gift item this season is the plasma TV. In fact, the survey cites that nine percent of consumer electronic gift buyers plan to purchase a plasma television as a gift.According to Ron Gillies, Senior Vice President and General Manager for the Visual Systems Division of NEC Solutions, studies show that Americans are spending more time at home and using display technology to connect with friends and family.
