People have already paid more for much less quality Plasmas and LCD's.  If the response time is that quick it'll be great for watching hockey and playing games. I wonder how long the sets can be expected to last? <br>I just hope my old CRT last till I can pick one of these babies up.  My PS3 should look great on one of these.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mcloki]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 3rd 2006 10:54AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 55-inch SED HDTVs on the way in '08]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</guid><description><![CDATA[I don't see mention of a $5000 price tag and frankly would be surprised if it comes out that low.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[The Big Bad]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 3rd 2006 11:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 55-inch SED HDTVs on the way in '08]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</guid><description><![CDATA[Sorry my mistake.

That means about $4,000 - $5,000.  The problem will of course be that at current rates, by 2008 you will probably be able to get a 55" plasma for closer to $2,000 (a total guess on my part).<br><br>I still want one, and I will hold my breath until they come out.  I hope my 27" tv makes it.<br><br>The last thing that was heard about SED before this was that they were delaying the 2007 release in order to find better manufacturing processes to bring the price down.  The way that was read was that they were more expensive than they should be and they need to fix that before they are released.<br><br><br><br><br><br>So bangin contrast ratio, response time, and brightness (450 is pretty high isn't it??), is there any other statistic / feature that we know that we can compare it to lcd / plasma??  How's color saturation, pixel size (for smaller tv and monitors)....oh and display life...that's all I can think of.<br><br>ps wtb real rememberable passwords.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jonathan Sundy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 3rd 2006 12:13PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 55-inch SED HDTVs on the way in '08]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</guid><description><![CDATA[I must be missing something. 50,000 to 1 contrast yet the man's suit and the cabinet have a better black level than what is on the screen? Something is horribly wrong here. My CRT projector measured a paltry 9500 to 1 poorly calibrated and did a better job at black levels. They should have put up a checkerboard test pattern (e.g. ANSI contrast test pattern).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[GhostDoggy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 3rd 2006 7:24PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 55-inch SED HDTVs on the way in '08]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</guid><description><![CDATA[There is a whole lot of ambient/direct light reflecting off of the set, definitely not optimum viewing conditions.

You would get the same results...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[DaMan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 6th 2006 1:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 55-inch SED HDTVs on the way in '08]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</guid><description><![CDATA[PLasma hd come down to close to $1000 for a 42 inches and 42' LCD already in $1500.<br>By the time ome out in late 2007, majority of people will probably had one or two of those. Unless you're really need for an extra SED and SED are at very competitive price, it'll tough for SED to jump in as a lot of people has just toom long enough to buy a LCD or Plasma. SED really need to act fast to response.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[sed fan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 25th 2006 4:43PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 55-inch SED HDTVs on the way in '08]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</guid><description><![CDATA[I cannot wait until this comes out.  I have been reading/ waiting on the SED technology since they announced the technology (perhaps 2 years ago when they announced it to the public).  I still believe that nothing can beat the quality of CRT displays and the SED will make it even better.  I am curious about the pricing as well but if they feel that they want to compete against the LCDs, I am sure they will be within reason.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Richard]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 6th 2006 6:08PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 55-inch SED HDTVs on the way in '08]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</guid><description><![CDATA[GhostDoggy,<br><br>Akin to what DaMan wrote, there are many reasons the contrast near the man in the picture looks better than what's on the TV. Remember, you're looking at a digital photo of a tv under less than ideal settings. I'm not exactly sure how the tv's contrast was measured, but the perceived contrast and the actual contrast are not always the same. With actual contrast (Michelson), they're measuring the luminance of a white spot vs the luminance of a black spot in isolation (i.e., the only light source is the TV). Perceived contrast also involves reflected light, distribution of light elements in the picture, etc. And let's not forget, the camera is taking a picture of the TV at an non-orthogonal angle, which typically reduces contrast with  most types of technologies (not sure with SED though). Anyhoo...<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kumbhani]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 6th 2006 6:45PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 55-inch SED HDTVs on the way in '08]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</guid><description><![CDATA[I just really hope they're not severely overpriced.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Joshua]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 6th 2006 7:57PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 55-inch SED HDTVs on the way in '08]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</guid><description><![CDATA[omg this is the tv techology i have always fatansized about! the very best of crt quality with the flatness and weight that we can carry ourselves anywhere in the house! and it means the end <br>of dead pixels!! oooohhh praise and bless the fine people of this techology baby!! yeeeeh!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ozi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 9th 2006 2:11AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 55-inch SED HDTVs on the way in '08]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</guid><description><![CDATA[i just hope they will make pc monitors in 21" sizes with sed tech! =/ tss who my kiddin of course they will =)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ozi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 9th 2006 2:15AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 55-inch SED HDTVs on the way in '08]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/10/03/55-inch-sed-hdtvs-on-the-way-in-08/</guid><description><![CDATA[Bought a great cheap HD widescreen old fashioned CRT tube, so I can wait patiently for the good stuff.
