green and
blue LEDs, which is killer because there's no gold at the end of that rainbow

new tweaks give the HL-S5679W a sweet seven-second startup time and 20,000
hours of little

progressive format with dual 1080p inputs. Samsung states these will handle
1080p signals,
so if it's the real deal, these should be paired up PlayStation 3's, no? Watch
for it in
April around $4,200.

Here goes, http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/06/sams ... backlight/. Hope it works. I saw a T.I. rep talking about it on HD NET on the program "What's Kewl at CEDIA". It was his primary focus and according to him multiple manufacturers are adopting the technology, but SAMSUNG appears to be first.

Sound and Vision Magazine December 2006 has a review of the Samsung TV
referenced below. The review is on Page 90.

Overall it received a decent review. I was most impressed by the fact
that S&V didn't have to do a gray scale calibration to get good
results (+-96K from 30 to 100 IRE). They did comment that the screen
uniformity was not great and the shadow detail was limited.

S&V will probably have the review on their website next month.
