I know, you were thinking I was going to say OLED, didn’t you. No, okay, then you are the meme I thought you were. But seriously, can you believe that Sharp has developed a TV that you can fit in your back pocket. Okay, if it wasn’t like 52 inches wide. But, you get the point - it’s very thin. But, only a press release could really say it best: “The prototype LCD TV developed at this time brings together Sharp’s unique, one-of-a-kind LCD technologies nurtured over long years of experience in this field to achieve unprecedented, mind-boggling levels of performance and design…” I love the “mind-boggling” part.

Here is a frontal view of the TV as well as a few specs.  Btw, it’s not due out until 2010.  2010, ooh, eeerie.

    I wonder why they would tell their competitors 3 years ahead of time?

    Cameron; if I were them, I’d tell them I was 3 years ahead if I had 5 years of R&D under my belt, ya dig?
