With the cable and satellite TV providers and content producers fail to produce and deliver shows in 1080p, people would not see a need to upgrade to something even higher resolution when the content isn't here to deliver at that resolution. As much as I love 4K (I have been fortunate enough to see one of those sweet 4K Sony projectors in action in a private demo) being used to model mechanical designs and movie projections, the market from content producer (difficult to edit because it is computationally expensive), to the delivery infrastructure and equipment (again computationally intensive and high requirement for bandwidth with today's H264 and VC-1 compression), and user (the clarity brought at such close distance could cause dizziness) are simply not ready to adopt the resolution yet.<br><br>Bottom line is that while the 4K resolution may be good for large theatre projection or for companies doing mechanical design, the capital cost of investing into this resolution maybe too much for everybody in the process from content production to consumption. Perhaps it will take at least another 5 to 10 years before 2K and 4K becomes widely adopted as computation power increases and more efficient compression algorithm allows for efficient and cost effective production and delivery.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Thomas]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 2:00AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[lol is there even a point for being that thin?<br>its like girls who gets so thin that their rib bones shows up *shrug*]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Box]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 1:46AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[i presume so you can lug it to the shelter in a jiffy when a tornado decides to visit your house.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mocax]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 1:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[Now if they could just make it flexible so I can fold it and take it with me would the best.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Blastar]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 2:36AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[yeah samsung please bring a cheap(!) quad hd to ces]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[arash]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 1:54AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[@ uncontrol<br>where are you? in panavision or red?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[arash]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 1:57AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[Why so thin?

In the end, it still needs a fairly wide base which ends up taking the same footprint anyways. I'd rather take a better TV that is thicker and cheaper then simply be "thinner" and more expensive with likely being mediocre, anyway.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bleck]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 2:11AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[Agreed. I have a Sony SXRD 50a3000, and it's got an amazing picture. It beats out DLP in color and video movement (and has less SSE than the Samsung DLP set), and when the sets were still reasonably available just after being discontinued, you could find a 60" for like 1700 or less. <br><br>It's a shame that Sony had to play the market demand and discontinue the sets in favor of LCD technology. I know their XBR sets provide great looking picture, but they're so much more expensive. The whole "I NEED A SET I CAN HANG ON MY WALL" mentality of consumers is really getting on my nerves, especially because to even have it look good while hanging on that wall, you need all your cables and other AV peripherals professionally installed accordingly. <br><br>Most people don't recognize a good thing when they see it. They just want what everyone else has...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Aaron]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 6:12AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'll take it in the 65" flavor please!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[dontaxedme]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 2:12AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[LCD cannot even display motion properly yet, maybe they should concentrate on that first.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[BobTurbo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 2:27AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yeah, Plasma and RPTV's have been able to deliver excellent response times for quite a while now, and it's taken LCD's a long time to even catch up, let alone try to surpass other tech.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Aaron]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 6:14AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[I dont understand thin TVs, yeah compared to CRT, but that thin just seems like shwoing off...<br><br>How would you utilize the extra thinness?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Oli D]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 2:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[Slicing cake.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kingBoni]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 3:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[For those who didn't get the "slicing cake" joke, remember how HP guy used MacBook Air to slice a cake (its thin and sharp on edges, others used it to cut bread, themselves).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Shinigami]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 8:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[I guess I'm the only one here to understand the appeal of this thin-ness.

Frankly, I'm just dazzled... in my opinion this is getting to be a real sweet spot of LCD.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Noah]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 5:01AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think you need to get laid.

Oh, wait, was it 0.4mm by Sony?<br>In either case it would be GREAT if they stopped their "the thinner the better" and started thinking about the rest of things, like low response time (cheap OLED pretty please), good/proper/realistic rich colors, great detail in the dark, smaller weight (JVC! Nicely done!), smaller power requirements, smaller price.<br><br>So please if you know anyone in Samsung pass them a message - we don't really care if its thinner than iPhone. As thin as iPhone will do the job nicely, so its time to take a look at other parameters.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Shinigami]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 8:11AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung prepping 6.5mm LCD for debut at CES]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/05/samsung-prepping-6-5mm-lcd-for-ces/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ohhh its so thin! <br><br>Who cares.

LCD TVs are for wall mounting. The point is to save space, that and to look amazing, i'm must admit, thats one sexy screen, the JVC also. <br><br>If your wondering about players, you can hide those away somewhere else, they don't HAVE to be right under your TV, especially with universal remotes and the like. Picture this: mount and ultra thin LCD TV on your chimney breast that makes it almost look like it IS the wall, and hide your DVD/BD player in a cupboard in the annoying space either side. Instantly makes your living room look bigger and tidier.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[collide007]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 8:54PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
