MUMBAI: Sharp Electronics, the U.S. subsidiary of Sharp Corporation, has entered into a five-year partnership with NBC Universal that will make the Sharp AQUOS the official high-definition television of the NBC Experience Store.

More than 150 Sharp AQUOS LC-TVs have been installed throughout the store and selected areas of the NBC Studio Tour, providing a high-definition (HD) upgrade to the popular visitor destination. Sharp's stunning 65-inch AQUOS, the world's largest available LCD, will serve as the centerpiece, displayed in a dedicated Sharp window on 49th Street and in the main Rockefeller Plaza entrance, states an official release.

"NBC is a pioneer in bringing HD content to broadcast, and Sharp is a pioneer in bringing high-definition LCD TVs into consumers' homes," Sharp Electronics Corporation senior director of retail & consumer marketing Judah Zeigler. "This collaboration will bring the excitement of HDTV to even more consumers, and allow them to see firsthand the amazing clarity of HD content as well as the superior picture quality of the AQUOS LCD TV."

The partnership is part of the second phase of Sharp's "More to See" brand campaign, which focuses on expanding the brand's recognition to a wider and influential audience. Many of the AQUOS sets displayed in the NBC Experience will show content from the high-profile campaign, including the acclaimed broadcast commercial.
