    No one likes an overachiever...unless that overachiever is Sharp and their apparent fixation is making bigger, cheaper, better Aquos LCD HDTVs, because we like them just fine and want them to keep up the good work. The 1080p Aquos LCDs announced earlier in Japan and the US just aren't well enough left alone, President Katsuhiko Machida sees demand doubling what it is now, by the spring of 2009. They don't know what size panel it will target, depending on what is most needed by the market then, but they won't be caught slipping again.
