In fact, I think that for the most part it is inferior to other Micro-Display technologies. The examples from other manufacturers are dim at best with poor contrast and terrible brightness levels. So, to say that I was pleasantly surprised by Hitachi’s achievement is an understatement. Clearly, Hitachi knows how to exploit this technology to its utmost, and I applaud them for it. I am happy to report that the images displayed were among the best presently available from any HDTV manufacturer.</i>"<br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/60VX915_big.jpg" /><br /><br />This is one cool looking and versitile HDTV from Hitachi with, among other things, dual TV tuners and plenty of inputs. :cool: The reviewers over at DesignTechnica seemed to like it and gave it 9 out of 10 points plus their editor's choice award. By the way, there is at least one thing about this 60 inch TV that will leave you breathless; the price tag is at $ 5499. ;)
