The percentage of sales people that recommend Samsung HDTVs.
Salespeople are also becoming less likely to recommend LCD sets over plasma sets, which goes against the industry trend.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
Why is that the US is usually always last to get the goods? It seems it's always Asia, then Eurpoe, then the US. Isn't the US the biggest tech market?
This is just one of those things I've come to accept, although I think we do generally get better release dates of things than the EU. I do feel sorry for my European brethren when they get the shaft on release dates, or worse, not even getting items period. But we'll always be behind Asia, which is fine by me. After all, they work harder than anybody else over there, so they deserve some perks. Am I right?
Silly tech terms 4k, 3d, etc.....all meaningless.
How's the picture quality? viewing angle? response time? LCD LAG????
Exactly. Nothing new, just more tech jargon to fool the foolish LCD buyer.
I agree. I'd take a speaker-less VIERA with an ugly bezel and a boring GUI over any LCD no matter what super fancy GUI or other fancy stuff it had that didn't directly affect the picture quality.
This whole "ricing up our TVs" trend is beginning to get a little stupid. Just give me a good picture for a good price, that's all I want.
Video scaling requires a ton of number crunching, or very processor intensive. The Cell processor should be perfect for this task. Who knows, Toshiba can become the next Faroudja. Genesis made a killing selling Faroudja oem scalers/ video processors.
