ChauhanStudio's Jetsons-esque HAL LCD TV gets real


Alright, so we're not really any closer to determining whether or not ChauhanStudio's HAL LCD TV is headed for commercial production, but we do know this: at least one of these bad boys are real. Yep, the mockup we saw a few months back has somehow made it into reality, though we can't say for sure that there is anything more than rarefied air packed within the glossy white enclosure. Regrettably, specifications are still unknown, but you can peek a shot of the back in the read link below should you be so inclined.

Humax LCD TV concept: The Jetsons called, they want their stuff back


When you're not heading to work in your space car or programming your robot maid to make dinner for the family, you'll probably want to catch American Idol 3017 on this Humax LCD TV concept. Designed by London's Tej Chauhan, the future-retro model manages to look old while seeming completely fresh, recalling the "World of Tomorrow" depicted in Cold War-era renderings of the "future." There's no word on whether this is going to get turned into an honest-to-goodness consumer product (please?), but you can check it out if you live in Italy at the Zona Tortona design show, running April 16th to the 21st.

Humax expands LCD TV lineup with Freeview-equipped LU32-TD1


Humax is expanding its IDTV lineup once again, offering a less expensive alternative to its fairly similar LP32-TDR1 and LGB-40TPVR options, except this flavor loses the built-in PVR functionality. This HD-ready LU32-TD1 boasts a sleek, black finish, 32-inch panel, 1,024 x 768 resolution, 1200:1 contrast ratio, 450cd/m2 brightness, integrated Freeview tuner for catching those gratis UK terrestrial broadcasts, and an eight-day electronic program guide to boot. While details are far and few between concerning the port assortment, we do know the LCD TV sports one HDMI port, a VGA connector, audio in / out, composite, S-Video, and component AV inputs. The LP32-TDR1 should satisfy those ultrathin DVT-B (sans PVR) desires for £749 ($1,429) when it hits the European market real soon.

Humax releases 32-inch LCD with built-in dual-tuner PVR

Humax continues to rock the all-in-one bizness with its latest 32-inch LCD TV, the LP32-TDR1, which manages to cram a 160GB PVR with twin Freeview tuners into its otherwise unassuming set. The usual specs like resolution, contrast ratio, and response time are a bit hard to come by, but it is apparently equipped with a CI slot for subscription content, component, composite , s-video, and "PC" ports, (not sure if that means VGA or DVI), two RGB SCART jacks and, most importantly, an HDMI connector, something Humax's earlier TVs lacked. Price is £900, or about $1,700 for those of us this side of the pond.
