Look at the super cheap shipping price too!! http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Genuine-...item19ed35bed3 I'm ready to move to this next generation  Don't let this one get "away"......

 that has got to be the funniest thing I've read on Amazon.IIRC the CT-100 was 5,000$ in 1954 when the average car cost about 2,000$, and that UHD set is 40,000 when and average cost of a car last year was about 30,000$. If you look at the cost to be on the cutting(bleeding?) edge of television over the years in terms of how many new cars you could have bought instead (2.5 in '54 vs. 1.3 today) then we are saving about half the cars that we would have to give up to get the TV 60 years ago...

That is why there is an IIRC (short for If I Recall Correctly) in front of that that price....
It's been a few years since I last saw the original price quoted.

Geez, I ought to just sell my Canon digital camera with "Full HD" video and wi-fi for what I can get for it while that model is still being sold new. Someone else is giving me a camera that shoots in standard def, all I'll ever want.

Panasonic has a 152 inch plasma that sells for $100,000. They had it at one of the CEDIA shows. They provided the installation and if my memory is correct, it needs 3 phase electricity to operate. It was 2200P if memory isn't too cloudy.

I have one of those Seiki 4k sets, 55" paid like $600 for it. Nice TV, not much content unless you hook it up to a computer. My viewing distance is about 9 feet, you can notice the smaller pixels at that distance if your vision is good enough.
