- It seems as if everyone these days is showing off their expensive flashy new home entertainment centers. They're linked wirelessly to computers, have more speakers than a Rolling Stone's concert, and cost more than a midsize luxury sedan. They feature DVD players, DVR or Tivo, CD players, MP3 players, and anything else you can imagine. The centerpiece, though, still remains the same: the television.

- HDTV: high definition television, or HDTV for short, is quickly becoming the standard for television signal technology, and it is important to look for an LCD TV that is HDTV ready.

- One thing to consider is the aspect ratio. Some widescreen LCD TVs boast of an aspect ratio of 16 to 9. However, believing blindly in this could be a mistake. Some screens just stretch the image to fit the screen. In doing so, the images become jagged and washed out. Best LCD TVs are those that can retain their resolutions even when the image is stretched to fit a 16 to 9 screen. Trust your eyes to judge that.

- Flat Panel TVs, the new big thing to hit the home entertainment market, are being praised not only for their high resolution but also their form factor. They can sit elegantly in a living room, almost as sleek as a sculpture, and the handy shape also means that they don't take up valuable space (ideal for those in small city apartments). Disadvantages include burning in of static images. LCD Flat panels don't have the burn in problem, but may be difficult to view at wide angles.

- Sonoma TV Stand - This stand features a mocha cherry veneer finish with silver-toned handles. This one has short furniture-style legs for a base. It will support up to a 60 inch flat panel TV up to 154 lbs. The center of the unit has an open cubby hole and a drawer for storage. To each side are shelves housed behind tempered-glass doors. There are cutouts in the back panel for cable management.

- Plasma technology seems to be the buzz these days and its popularity continues to grow as HDTV, DVD-video, DTV, and digital satellite become more commonplace. Plasma TV buying tips will help you make the right decision.

- At a slim and trim 3.4 inches in depth, the flat-screened plasma takes up virtually no space in your room, making it the screen of choice for both home and office. This plasma's high-end display resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels gives a picture quality and depth of color that are outstanding.

- There is no better buy than a plasma TV. These TVs last for years and they give you the best quality picture available on the market today. They are expensive but if you know how to shop you will find all kinds of great deals on this kind of TV. Just remember that the only place to save massive amounts of money on anything, especially electronics is online.

- HDTV: high definition television, or HDTV for short, is quickly becoming the standard for television signal technology, and it is important to look for an LCD TV that is HDTV ready.

- If you want the large screen cinema experience and your room size will allow it, front projection is the way to go. Front projectors are made to produce screen images in the range of 70" to 120" diagonal or more. Once people realize they can get a picture up to four times the size for the same money as a good RPTV, it opens up a whole new world of entertainment possibilities.

- While the up front investment of a large number of digital STBs could be expensive to a cable company, there could be a partial offset with the potential revenue received from additional digital pay services such as VOD, PPV, or premium channels. Additionally, the number of digital STBs required for a full digital conversion of the cable feed might be further reduced when considering the growing base of integrated HDTVs with CableCARD tuners expected to increase in 2008 and 2009. However, since the integrated CableCARD tuners within HDTV sets are only unidirectional, there might still be a cable subscriber's base that would still require the bi-directional capabilities of cable HD-STBs for VOD, PPV, and cable supplied programming guide. Each cable company would have to balance those factors until 2012.

Netronix looking to Android, 3G for its e-book readers

Google's little green man has been getting quite an education lately, popping up in a number of e-book readers (why hello there Nook, Alex, eDGe). Not to be left out, Netronix is reportedly also looking to work with Texas Instruments on assimilating Android into its product line, according to company chairman Arthur Lu (via DigiTimes). Neither are bad trends to follow in this still-infant industry, but the questions remains as to when and how it'll actually work. Also on the company to-do list? 3G and 3.5G capabilities, supposedly coming sometime in the middle of 2010. Bated breath? Hold it.

Plasma Televisions and Plasma TV Mounts

Thoughts About Plasma Televisions and Plasma TV Mounts

- Plasma televisions come as Enhanced Definition TV (EDTV), with a resolution of 852x480 and the Higher Definition TV (HDTV), featuring a native resolution of 1024x768. Plasma televisions have a high widescreen aspect ratio - the ratio between the width and height of the screen. As plasma televisions do not use any electron beams like the conventional ones, they are immune to the effects of magnetic fields. They offer a wider viewing angle and accurate image reproduction. Plasma televisions are slim and space-saving and can even be hung on a wall. Moreover, most of the plasma televisions come with a flat screen which eliminates edge distortion.

- When shopping for a DLP television, it is important to learn as much as you can about the new technology, inadditionto shopping around for the best possible price. When shopping for a new DLP TV, it is important to look carefully at the kind of tuner the unit uses.

This can be an important consideration, so it is important to make sure you understand these various formats and how they affect you as an end user.

- The US government has approved a subsidy coupon program to help people purchase DTV tuners to facilitate the analog-to-digital transition so existing analog TV sets can continue to be used for broadcast digital DTV. For that purpose, Congress approved a fund of $1.5 billion dollars, with an initial allocation of $990 million dollars to subsidize up to two $40 coupons per household. The coupons became available in January 2008 and can be requested by consumers until March 2009, to use them toward the purchase of two DTV tuners.

- While there have been many technological innovations in the world television in the last couple of decades, perhaps none have captured the attention and excitement of the public at large quite like the LCD TV. When these flat screen displays first showed up on the market, they were prohibitively expensive for all the but the wealthiest consumers, but as is the case with many facets of technology, the prices of these LCD displays have come down quite a bit over the last couple of years.
