hope to see Sharp commercialize the TV in time for the next HD disc war that follows Blu-ray and HD-DVD.

*groans* Not another one!

Just as i Finally catch up with todays Tech.They do this.It sounds great though.With that resolution,i just cant imagine.

With TV's 60" and higher,Your gonna need more pixels and higher resolution for that size.

I agree, but I think they should have made it even bigger really. My only issue with it is that I wonder if resolutions such as 720p will look bad on it similar to the way 480i looks bad on 720p TVs. If it does work that way they will have to have newer sources that can put out atleast 1080p if not higher.

Jeez those companies should give it a rest. It ain't gonna be too soon when movie theatres have those as their screens instead of projectors.

I heard about this set last summer but i heard that it was giving people motion sickness.

Yeah, I read that too. Some people experienced motion sickness while others said the picture was like being there.

But what kind of source could you feed this. Ive seen the Narnia trailer in 1440p and thats it, How long was 480i around 50 years?

and wonder what the price is going to be. i would guess 5000.00 dollars plus . so many aren't going to be able to afford it

Wait, how on earth are they going to distribute the MASSIVE, maybe in the terabytes, file for movies? This seems like overkill for today, but I'm not saying this isn't cool.

This will probably be commercial in 7 years or so, so prepare, says I :)

In 7 years I will have and be happy with my 10 year old technology!

Wow, that's just great. I was just getting into this new video source called "DVD". Anyone heard of them? Supposedly they're a lot better than VHS, and will soon replace the medium all together. What's next? A surround sound system that plays in more than 2 channel stereo? Hah! I think not in this lifetime.

Ok, most High Def movies use around 16 or so Gb of data on a HD DVD or BD. The rest is left for uncompressed audio in multiple formats and extra features. If 1440p is 4 times the data as 1080p, than it is my guess that they could, if nothing better was available, put the movie onto two Blue Ray Discs, since those discs can hold 60 Gb's. If need be, the movie could be split into three discs to allow for the same amount of uncompressed audio and extra features. Of course there will be some media that will be able to handle 1440p's massive data on a single disc by the time 1440p tv's become popular, anyway.
