Of course, we expect tremendous numbers of 1080p TVs at CES 2007, and their prices will fall as they inexorably replace other resolutions, especially among flat-panel LCDs and big-screen rear-projection sets. But what comes next? We think it's a bit early to see many higher-than-1080p resolution displays. Instead of resolution, we expect manufacturers to focus on improving other aspects of television performance, many of which may prove difficult to explain to the average consumer--but hey, that's what CNET does best, right? Here's a look at some TV technology trends you'll be hearing a lot about during our show coverage."</i> <br /><br />Of course there will be price drops, but there are also some other improvements on the way. Some, like 3D HDTV seem a bit gimmicky, but many of the other new technologies will lead the way to bigger and better sets in the future.
