Hollywood "Stars" Punk'd Into Going to Scarlet TV Premiere

We weren't the only ones fooled by LG's Scarlet TV that masqueraded as a TV series. LG managed to convince Hollywood's red carpet-loving "starlets" to come out as well, thinking that it was for the premiere of some show made by a Smallville and Sopranos director. We hope attendees got to take home one of these HDTVs, because we'd be pissed if we had to put on pants for nothing. [MavrixOnline via Shiny Shiny]

LG Announces Slew of LCD and Plasma Panels

LG covered its bets at its press conference this morning, brand-spamming us with so many LCD and plasma displays that we're thinking there's a model for every week of the year. See the gallery below for a generous sampling of some of these, along with other LG rollouts this morning. Our fave screen was that LG40 "Bedroom TV" pictured above, with a colorful back (we thought it was orange, LG calls it red), a 12,000:1 contrast ratio and a side-loading DVD player for those not completely finished with standard definition. Good gawd, these red babies are purdy! Another highlight was the 1.7-inch-thin LGX Super Slim LCD, a 42-inch display that LG may have thought was going to be the slimmest until JVC eclipsed that with its 1.5-inch-thick competitor.

LG Makes a 71-inch, 24-Carat Gold TV

If you thought you couldn't afford a standard 71-inch TV, LG's 24-carat gold 71-inch TV will have you throwing up your arms in defeat. The display is part of a set of gold speakers, DVD players, and subwoofers—all made out of gold and all ridiculously extravagant. We suppose the profit margins are much higher selling electronics made out of precious metals to Bond Villain types like Richard Branson. [AVING]

LG VX9400 V-CAST TV Phone Hands-On


We got some hands-on time with the second V-CAST TV phone of all time, and we think that the US is finally going to catch on to those krazy Koreans and their DMB phone TV watching. The VX9400 itself is fairly light, and has a swiveling display that's actually clear enough quality to not have you squint to make out whether it's Meredith Viera or that dude from Prison Break.

LG LCD: 2D or 3D

We only know what we can see, and that's 3D - on a 2D screen in no way intended to view 3D. LG just demoed their prototype 42-inch HD LCD with switchable 2D/3D viewing at IMID (the annual display party that is turning out to be pretty cool this year). That's all we know. Check out more pictures and bland commentary after the jump. More »
