I would suspect he is talking about a laser addressed 1080p DLP
projector.
With laser addressability each pixel receives the laser directed light
upon it when that pixel is energized by a video signal. I am not clear
yet until the 8th of this month when I will be in Huntington Beach,
California to see a demonstration whether the laser is also tied in with
the modulation (gray
scale) scheme, but one thing is for sure, when the lasers (red, green,
blue) are on, they are "on", and when off, they are off. That will
prevent light leakage that invariably comes with a constant lamp or back
light and give you those black blacks that are so important for the
enriching of the image.
At the right viewing distance you cannot resolve more than what a 1080p
will deliver if it is delivering all 2 million plus pixels. One thing to
rejoice over is that the lasers will outlast the electronics--in other
words, no bulb replacements for the life of the set. It is also bright
enough that there need be no focusing of the front plate, making the
entire envelope thinner and the need for a heavy bevel far less.
UltraHD has been introduced to "challenge" HD and drive up the technical
bar a notch, i.e., you have to keep raising the bar and encouraging
technical rivalries. There are business and military application for
UltraHD and when display technology is sophisticated enough and we, the
people, are convinced that a huge image is more desirable than just a
big one, and the bandwidth to transmit it is realizable, it could be
introduced as the high-end tier.
There are demonstrations of it at the NAB convention in Las Vegas later
this month, which I am anxious to see. _Dale

I was listening to the radio on the way in and heard the Clark Howard
update. For those of you who don't know Mr. Howard is a financial guru
who retired from regular work in his early thirties because of his
financial investments and he is extremely frugal. This morning he was
discussing HD displays and mentioned that Mitsubishi has a new display
technology on the horizon that will rival or surpass the image quality
of theaters. He said it won't be out until Christmas of 2007 and is
advising his listeners not to shell out more than 1200.00 for an HD
display until this new technology hits the market. He then advises that
the 1200.00 or less display be moved to a sports or game room. OK,
anyone have any idea what the heck he is talking about? 1080P displays
are already out. High definition discs are hitting the market this
year, so what would improve resolution beyond those two advancements?
Is Ultra High Definition coming to the marketplace much sooner than
expected?
This inquiring mind would really like to know. Comments please.
