Been thinking about a new HDTV TV?

Well bunky, if it wasn't tough enough to decide between Plasma, LCD or DLP HDTV technology, now this article points out that there is a new competitor in the field. Well not new really, but surely slimmed down anyway.

Here is the link to a story about slim CRT's. These are supposed to be about 16 inches deep and cost way less then current Plasma and LCD screens and you get a better picture to boot. Well okay, that sounds to good to be true, but check it out for yourself.

I wonder if they are going to make PC CRT's too?

Well considering that CRT moniters that can go higher than 1600x1200 have been a very long time (The highest HD res is 1600x1200) even is expensive, why would you even want an HDTV? Most HDTVs produce 1200x1024 or somewher about.

i'd check out some newer generation DLP's from Samsung, i haven't been checking anything out in terms of user reviews for the last 6 months but they were higher quality back then.

I also like the projection LCD's from Sony. They have a good look to them and they are a little bit more affordable than the DLP, again this was 6 months to a year ago the last time i was selling them.

I'd stay away from the Slim CRT for a while, you never know what bugs there are gonna be. I know for certain that they are still workin shit out of the DLP and Proj LCD but now there are more pros than cons on those now then a year ago.

I'm sure other people can drop other websites but my fav and most accurate for my equipment is: http://www.audioreview.com

oh yeah, slimmer CRT's will also be most likely heavier too. Sony's 30" widescreen HDTV CRT weighs about 250+ lbs. and it has only 3 inches thickness of glass...
