TOKYO -- Hitachi will cease design and production of televisions, ending more than 40 years of internal manufacturing.
By September, the company will end TV production at its factory in Gifu, which products some 100,000 LCD and plasma sets each month. The Gifu site will then be converted to semiconductor packaging and projector manufacturing.

Hitachi will continue to market and sell TVs made by outsourcers, the company said.
