Weren't you just telling your boss yesterday that what you really need to increase productivity is a 1080p 65-inch LCD HDTV? We're sure you were because Sharp announced today that the PN-655U we've been drooling over is now available in the US.
Of course, they didn't mention a price but judging from the nearly-$9,000 price tag of its existing 45-inch cousin, we suggest ratting out a coworker or two to make room in the budget. Isn't it worth it? They are also showing off the consumer edition LC-65D90U that is already available for between $15 and $20k, and their new 57-inch LC-57D90U, but you've probably got better odds of convincing your boss it's a good purchase than your wife.

This stuff needs quite a bit of processing power ;-)
Oooh, thank you very much for that information :-P
I'm going to give that a try, thanks!

After all, when would people stop being excited by large screen LCD TVs? They don't have a really great image compared to, say, plasma...
Expand the resolution in a linear fashion, then we can talk. In the meantime, all you're getting is bigger pixels.
I did pay attention, thank you very much, and this is exactly the point I was trying to convey. My old 19" LCD can do 1280x1024; going from that at 19" to 1920x1080 at 65" is *very* underwhelming. I want that to be expanded linearly. I'm currently using 3 LCD panels:
- 19" 1280x1024
- 17" 1280x1024
- 15" 1024x768
...for a total resolution of 3584x2816 across roughly 51" (doing stupid math--but still close enough to drive my point). I wanna get rid of this mess and replace it with one large display. Hence my assertion that this 65" LCD would only provide me with lower resolution than what I already have. It's not even the equivalent of 2 of my current monitors, only everything's blown up across 65".
I guess what I ultimately want is this:

...only, built out of a single panel. Is that any clearer?
