Its a Sony
I went and got myself a big 50 inch Sony SXRD (Silicon Crystal Reflective Display) TV. I am copying and pasting a review for kick’s sake.
“The wait is over. Videophiles who have followed the development of Sony's dazzling SXRD (Silicon Crystal Reflective Display) projection TV technology can now enjoy it without taking out a bank loan.
SXRD is a refined version of LCoS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) display technology. The KDS-R50XBR1 uses Sony's newest high-definition SXRD image panels, each with 1920 x 1080 pixels — the highest resolution available. SXRD also boasts the highest "pixel density" of any TV available, as well as the tightest between-pixel spacing. The distance from the middle of one pixel to the middle of the next is only about 1/8 the width of a human hair! SXRD images possess jaw-dropping clarity, detail and depth, but the most striking quality is a silky smoothness that creates a more filmlike look.
The KDS-R50XBR1's exceptional color purity is one of the main advantages of using three SXRD image panels (one each for red, green, and blue signals). This 3-chip design ensures rich, radiant, rock-steady color. Sony's innovative Cinema Black Pro "dynamic iris" technology improves contrast and black level by reducing the TV's light output in dark scenes. A circuit continuously samples the brightness content of the video signal and adjusts the iris opening on the fly to deliver the best possible brightness, contrast, and black level.
This "Digital Cable Ready" TV can receive both over-the-air and cable high-definition TV signals without using a separate set-top box. To make the most of the built-in cable tuner, request a CableCARD from your local service provider. The CableCARD replaces the cable box, simplifying your hookup, providing a slightly better picture, and eliminating one remote control.
Before now, SXRD was only available in Sony's $30,000 Qualia™ 004 front projector and $13,000 Qualia 006 rear-projection TV (often hailed as the world's finest HDTV). With the KDS-R50XBR1, this groundbreaking technology can now be yours for a fraction of that cost. Once you've seen SXRD work its magic in your home theater, you may decide to stop paying to see movies at the local theater. It's that good”
I have realized that this blog documents my life on a regular basis and a few years later as I go back memory lane it will all be here unless blogspot decides to take it all away unless I pay up an obscene amount.
Monday morning. I would rather be home with my wife. Oh well, I need the money to pay for the TV. I better shut the hell up and work.

Very jealous. I am such a TV fanatic but i do all my hedonism through a 17 inch cathode ray tube. Esentially, you bought the bentley while i drive the maruti 800. However, we both are liking the drive!
dont worry. the bentley is easily attainable in this country. Its a state of mind. One day you wake up and you tell yourself that you want a Bentley, you can then go pick it up and not even feel the pain. Go try it, you might like it.
