- Next-generation LED light engine: no color wheel, longer set life (30,000 hours)
- Full HD 1080p resolution and 10,000:1 contrast ratio
- 3D Ready integration with 3D accessory kit (sold separately)
- Four HDMI 1.3 ports with CEC
- USB 2.0 socket for PMPs, cameras, etc.
- Single-tuner picture-in-picture (PIP) can display two separate sources without an external tuner
If the HL67A750A series ain't doing anything for you, why not give the HL56A650A (available in 50-, 56-, 61- and 72-inch sizes) family a look? Highlights are listed below:
- Full HD 1080p resolution and 10,000:1 contrast ratio
- 3D Ready integration with 3D accessory kit (sold separately)
- Three HDMI 1.3 ports with CEC
- USB 2.0 socket for PMPs, cameras, etc.
- Slim depth allows for a compact home theater, even with large screen sizes
good. Samsung DLP is always a winner
Ooh.. I'd kinda set my mind on getting an HL-T7288W later this month, but it might be worth the wait for this next-gen without a color wheel. I personally don't see the moire effect with them, but that's one less moving part.
I could live with 67" vs 72" too.. have 65" older Mitsu from 2001 now (not DLP).
What happened to DarkChip4 with 100,000:1 contrast ratios?
Love my Sammy 6188. Betcha 5 bucks it has a better picture than these guys.
You know, that multiple source thing is very cool. I remember when HD sets were first coming out, Toshiba had a Cinemawide, or Cinemaview (something like that), model that could do that and I wanted it bad. It would be very cool for gaming, to have two consoles hooked up to one TV so you don't have to do the obnoxious split screen.
Also, Samsung has really stepped up in their design department. All of their new products have some of the cleanest, most aesthetically pleasing casing.
