Don't get me wrong, I want 1080p but I want a much bigger high quality TV even more.   Most of my friends who have 65" TVs are in the same boat - we are willing to upgrade but we all want bigger but don't want to go down the projection road at this point.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[boe]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 10:46AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hands-on with Pioneer's extreme contrast concept plasma]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/hands-on-with-pioneers-extreme-contrast-concept-plasma/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/hands-on-with-pioneers-extreme-contrast-concept-plasma/</guid><description><![CDATA[So we are talking of year 2010 in shelves, right?<br><br>$3000-4000 ? <br><br><br>Just to know how much money I have to say.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Deputy Doffoos]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 2:40AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hands-on with Pioneer's extreme contrast concept plasma]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/hands-on-with-pioneers-extreme-contrast-concept-plasma/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/hands-on-with-pioneers-extreme-contrast-concept-plasma/</guid><description><![CDATA[(ON shelves, excuse teh engrish spelling skillz)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Deputy Doffoos]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 2:41AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hands-on with Pioneer's extreme contrast concept plasma]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/hands-on-with-pioneers-extreme-contrast-concept-plasma/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/hands-on-with-pioneers-extreme-contrast-concept-plasma/</guid><description><![CDATA[Two questions - <br><br>1 When will the future version be available?<br>2 Will the future version be available in 80"?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[boe]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 10:34AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hands-on with Pioneer's extreme contrast concept plasma]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/hands-on-with-pioneers-extreme-contrast-concept-plasma/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/hands-on-with-pioneers-extreme-contrast-concept-plasma/</guid><description><![CDATA[I do believe this technology is called High Dynamic Range (HDR) and it uses either LED's or plasmas behind each pixel, and turns them on off, or anything in between.

Any pixels that have a non-zero, finite brightness will appear bright next to the true black regions, so they will stand out, even if there is hardly and difference in them in terms of the rgb values. Most cameras don't record any regions as being truly black anyway, as this would imply that the image is underexposed. The fireworks must have been flood-filled with zero brightness to make the black regions truly black. Please comment if you know more about it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matthew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 20th 2008 10:20AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
