To say ‘laser TVs’ are new to the market is an understatement. Everything today is LCD this, or Plasma that. Although Mitsubishi’s Laservue TV will run 10-inches thick, it will produce eye popping colors (twice the amount of colors) and be 3D (yes, three dimensional) out of the box! The first iterations of the Laservue wil come in sizes 65 and 73 inches.
Oh, and in case you’re wondering, they’ll utilize the very ’sound’ DLP technology found in today’s many high end rear projection TVs. They also use less power than Plasmas and LCDs.
Expect them to be up the ass expensive and the 65-incher available sometime in Q3 2008.

I want one, I want one (like the nagging little kid). Sharp is selling their 108-inch TV. How much you ask? Just a mere $185,000 (yes, that’s 3 zeros)! Currently, it’s being sold in Europe and has a 16 week waiting period. The Sharp LB-1085 108-incher weighs 430lbs and displays 1080p.

Just when you thought the television had hit it’s peak in picture quality, think again. Samsung unveiled an 82″ HDTV that displays a resolution of 3820×2160. To put it in perspective, today’s top of the line consumer HDTVs display a resolution of 1920×1080p. Samsung also tossed in a RGB LED backlight, which apparently raises color saturation to 150%, and upped the image refresh to 120hz.
According to TGDaily, these high end TVs are already available, but not to the general market. Westinghouse currently sells a 52-inch 2160p TV and it goes for a stomach turning $40,000. Probably safe to say that the Samsung one would be more than double that.
