Hi-def schmi-def. Chi Mei Optoelectronics just upped the ante with their 56-inch quad full high-definition (QFHD)
display, rocking a 3840x2160 resolution—8.29 million pixels for those of you keeping track. The LCD display, which they
claim is the highest resolution 56-incher around, is powered by 24.8 million transistors pushing 1.4GB a second of high
resolution goodness. We'll leave it up to you to find enough pixels to run through this thing. There's no word on the
inputs available but knowing that Apple's 30-inch
Cinema Display needs dual DVIs
just to power a measly 2560x1600 we're hoping that CMO has a similar solution that goes beyond just upsampling some HD
content. We don't know the price (we're guessing something along the lines of a crapload of cash) but we do know that
this pixel monger should be available next fall, making it the perfect holiday gift for that certain special Engadget
staff member. Better get saving!
