It does not matter how many times you paint your den or family room. It does not matter what kind of decor you put in the room. You do not need to spend very long on the fabric designs in your sofa either. Once you put a Samsung HDTV in your den no one will notice any thing else and that is with it turned off. When the picture comes on everyone in the house will gather around just to admire the clarity of the picture. I was so surprised at how far televisions had come in picture quality and design. They have compacted the designs and improved the picture. Usually when you make something smaller you have to loose a little quality but that is not the case.

TV’s migrating to all Flat Screen HDTV

Electronic TV’s migrating to all Flat Screen HDTV. The other day I was shopping for just a electronic TV non-HDTV type and not flat screen. We always first visit W-mart to find out what the going rate for electronics. To my surprise in the electronic section there were not picture tub TV, just Flat screens, I guess they are changing due to everyone having to have a HDTV or HD converter for their TV’s in February of next year.

The one thing I found during my search for a TV, is a piece of furniture that I want in my bedroom is one of those dresser looking pieces of furniture with a  tv lifts. The flat screen HDTV would raise  out of the base with a push of a button. This is a very cool piece of furniture.  I was thinking to have it at the end of the bed.  They even have them ready to handle a 60 inch HDTV LCD flat screen. I do not see much furniture that is worth buying until this.

Back to my TV search I found that all the non-flat screens are selling at the smaller stores and as convience to customers. The 27″ TV I was looking for was only $139. This is a great price and good for playing your XBOX or Playstation on.  Nice to see something going cheaper.

If you have or thinking about getting a home theater, do it, it will be a good thing for the entire family. We use ours every week, pop in a DVD movie, pop popcorn and turn on the big screen HDTV with home theater stereo. Over  the years the HDTV technology on home theaters have gotten better and better each year. About 10 fold each year. The pixels go higher and price go lower. I like LCD for my choice.

What ever your budget is, get the largest HDTV you can afford and home theater dvd system. I am wanting to get some nice leather home theater seating to go with the stereo sound acoustics and the giant screen HDTV to watch. Some things I would like to have is a professional popcorn machine, some movie posters in frames,  cinema decor and theater signs.

Sony Unveils First OLED TV. The superthin-screen unit, launched at CEATEC show, is scheduled to ship in December. I have got to have one of these TV’s. I am afraid they will be expensive. Who care lets get one anyway. But I will have to move to Japan to get one.

Sony unveiled the world’s first OLED (organic light-emitting diode) television on Monday, pushing the limits of thin-screen displays further than ever before.

This TV is aimed at the top end of the consumer market, Sony’s XEL-1 television offers an 11-inch OLED screen that is just 3-millimeters thick and will go on sale in December. The screen is thinner than a LCD or  (plasma display panel) set because no backlight is required: OLED materials, which are carbon-based, emit light on their own when an electric current is applied.

The XEL-1 will accept up to a 1080p video image, although the 11-inch screen has a resolution of just 960 pixels by 540 pixels. Just what is need for a good computer monitor or TV screen.

OLEDs offer other advantages over LCD and PDP technology, including wider viewing angles, faster response time, and better contrast and colors. However, the technology is difficult to manufacture and the OLED material degrades over time.

The XEL-1 has a viewing life of 30,000 hours, which allows a user to watch eight hours of television each day for 10 years. The television goes on sale in Japan on Dec. 1, and will cost US$1,740. Currently, there are no plans to sell the television outside Japan, Darn,  Sony plans to manufacture just 2,000 sets each month.

I will put this on wish list for the next chrismas
