Speaking of Resolutions…

January 11th, 2003

A lot of new technologies are being introduced at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (contrary to popular rumor, I did not take a sick day to attend CES, as it’s restricted to industry insiders and potential buyers only).

A lot of new digital TVs were introduced — and Sony’s president and COO (who now has to find a replacement for record exec Tommy Mottola, by the way), has predicted TV being the center of all media once again.

That will happen when HDTV prices begin to drop, though.

    From the looks of things, seems that Panasonic will be the first company to market a plug-and-play cable-ready HDTV, reports CNET.com .


    The 56-inch wide-screen PT-56TWD63, available in September for $2,700, looks just like any other CRT-based big screen, but around back is a POD slot. The POD-Host Interface License Agreement is the cable industry’s standard for delivering HDTV, and the slot will accept a module from your cable company that plugs directly into the coaxial cable coming out of the wall.
