Don't know if I should celebrate or cry myself to sleep... But Sharp, yes that's right SHARP is re launching the Elite series with their new LCD TV sets...
Pioneer themselves promise they'll be better than the Kuros and they will of course be 3D-ready.
here's some pics
I don't really know if this is good or bad news but I believe this TV will be competing with Panasonics new VX300 series plasmas coming out later this year.
Being LCD this TV will share nothing with the old Kuros (completely different panel obviously) I guess there goes our dreams of Panasonic releasing a Kuro plasma under their name :(

A HERITAGE IN UNPARALLELED ENGINEERING
"When you see the picture for the first time, you'll find yourself unconsciously holding your breath. It will be nearly impossible to keep your eyes off of it. These new Elite LCD masterpieces are an incredible combination of state-of-the-art engineering and proprietary magic.
You'll experience a superior range of colors, with the addition of yellow pixels to the standard RGB palette. Super smooth pans that challenge even the fastest camera sweeps. Contrast that spans deep black to the purest white. And a proprietary full array LED backlight technology that produces a significantly brighter and richer image.
You'll instantly recognize this as an entirely different breed of television picture.
It's okay. You can breathe now."
