    No DLP for me - if I need an image that large I think I'll go ahead and spring for a projector.

    @Costner: from what I hear, you get better brightness and picture on a DLP. The advantage of the projector (I suppose) is that you can make it even bigger than that, but every time you increase the size you decrease the brightness.

    "In order to display 3D images, Mitsubishi LaserVue™ & Home Theater DLP TVs require source devices to support checkerboard display formats for display of 3D gaming or 3D cinema content."


    I don't get it. What does "3D ready" mean? Why can't normal TVs broadcast the images that you need 3D glasses to watch?

    @Hello Mister Walrus: I have wondered that myself. It could be that the subtle variations necessary for "modern" 3D requires something in the electronics to be able to properly display it. That said, I do not claim to understand why a special screen is necessary for something like this.

    I really really like this. For one, like it points out, you don't have to have your fat fingers covering up the screen whenever you're using it. In addition, it fixes my biggest complaint with touchscreen technology, which is the fact that your fingers necessarily smudge up the screen. This fixes both of those problems and I for one cannot wait for such a technology to be implemented in a device that I can get.

    If the screen is translucent.. where will the battery and the hardware go? Not behind the screen, but besides it... so the device will become bigger?

    Wasn't apple awarded the patent for this system a year or two ago?

    @xanderbeedle: I remember that too. But some times companies can get away with copying a patent if they do it in a different way. We'll see how that works out

    @xanderbeedle: @dallasmay2:

    Apple's patent has a touch interface on the back of a device and shows the location of your finger with a moving dot on the front screen . . . it isn't translucent and so you can put the battery etc. in between . . . a much better solution.

    Sweet tech...It always made sense to have this kind of interface setup. I've been playing old school Doom on my iTouch for weeks, it's a pain to have the controls overlaid over the screen.


    A friend of mine works for a large (nameless) aerospace and miliraty contractor, and he's been dealing a lot with touch screen interfaces, and the infamous Surface interface. Lot's of cool ideas in the pipe.

    @shorty6049: For him to keep his job.. I'd rather not say. He works in R&D for a defense contractor and some of his fellow engineers might read The Giz. Companies tend to get weird when it comes to proprietary ideas that might trickle down to lucrative consumer products.
