Heard about this when visiting Tweeter today. I'm glad I didn't pull the trigger on an upgrade to 1080P:rolleyes:

    **** stole my idea!!!

    "But Novalux, a company in Sunnyvale, CA, found that adding a crystal of lithium niobate to a gallium indium arsenide laser would boost its light output and change its wavelength from infrared to the red, green, or blue that are the building blocks of color displays."

    Wonder what the price tag will be on these fella's... Maybe it'll make the 1080p more affordable for me! :D

    The guy @ Tweeter said there's only like 2 or 3 in the entire U.S., and that they'll be around $8500.00? but who knows for sure. I just wish the technology ould settle the F out. People are REALLY gonna get burnt out with this constant upgrade stuff.

    Gotta keep coming out with new **** so they can keep finding ways of charging 10 large for sets again.............

    It's SCARY that someone who is buying a 60" plasma for $5k this year, will be doing the same again in 3 years! I'm NO treehugger, but it seems wasteful even to me.
