One interesting thing to watch for... when NBC local NYC announced an "official" date to shift to HD, about a week plus prior to that I IMMEDIATELY noticed a big change in the quality of their 4:3 picture. On the day of the official launch, all that happened was the picture got opened to 16:9. Seems they started using the HD studio cameras before the launch date, BUT added the side pillars as most people still confuse HD and widescreen. Network MAY do the same thing, it does make sense they get used to the new camera before the official switch-over.
“Measuring 21.5 inches each, with 1920 x 1080 resolution, 1,000:1 contrast ratio, and optical multitouch technology under their chunky bezels, these two models represent the biggest mainstream push for touchscreen computing yet.”
