Toshiba intros the REGZA C3500 and RF350 for your LCD-viewing pleasure

Toshiba continued its onslaught of LCD TV announcements today with two additional new lines for your purchasing pleasure. The two families joining the recently crowded gang are the REGZA RF350 (pictured above) and the REGZA C3500. The former "design minded" displays come in 40-inch (¥330,000 / $2,866) or 46-inch (¥390,000 / $3,388) varieties, deliver 1920 x 1080 resolution, and feature VA panels, 1080p / 60p / 24p, x 2 HDMI, x 2 S-Video, X 3 composite, D-sub, and ethernet jacks, plus HDMI, digital, and optical audio. The latter appears to be the company's play for the cheaper end of the market, though they don't scrimp too badly on features. The C3500's come in 26-inch (¥150,000 / $1,303) and 32-inches (¥170,000 / $1,476) at 1366 x 768, or 37-inch (¥250,000 / $2,171) and 42-inches (¥300,000 / $2,606) at 1920 x 1080, and rock an IPS panel, 1080p / 60p / 24p formats, 2 x HDMI jacks, ethernet, plus your standard slew of S-Video, component, D-sub, and audio ins and outs. Both lines will be available this September.

Whoa. A 26-inch 1080p set. I remember someone on here a few days ago said: 'you cant get 1080p under 37 inches.'.

I believe it's a 26" 720p set, or 1366 x 768. If you read it.

Oh man, when I was reading it, I was trying to make sure there wasn't evidence to the contrary. My mistake then...

You only need 1080p for over 60" anyways according to the experts. As long as you have a TV that will deinterlace all the original lines and scale it proper a 720 can look better than a 1080p

Unless you want to use it as a 1920x1080 computer display, then 1080p works preety well @ 37" or 42"

Hopefully Tosiba has corrected the "Green Push" problem their last generation of LCD panel has.

Is this think LED backlit or not? Will it even be in the same league as the new Sony's or Samsung sets? I like all of the ports, but in the end you buy a TV for the picture, don't you?
