Samsung Announces 70" LCD
Samsung has announced a 70inch LCD screen.
Sure, those 100-inch LCDs are all well and good if your living room happens to encompass a large international tradeshow at all times, but if you'd prefer an LCD TV you can actually purchase and lug home for reals, Samsung's new 70-incher is your biggest option yet. They're busting out this monster in the first half of 2007, and are packing in all the niceties like a 2000:1 contrast ratio, a sub-8ms response time, 600 nits of brightness and of course a juicy 1080p resolution. The display bests the 65-incher from Sharp which currently holds the LCD throne, and Samsung will be showing it off at the upcoming International Meeting on Information Displays on the 23rd of this month -- where we doubt it will fail to impress.
Great responce time and amazing contrast ratio.
It will probably retail for 15 to $20,000.
I want one, and a large enough house to go with it.

Looks like its a LCD as in (like a computer monitor) LCD TV, not a LCD projection HDTV. Sony has had the latter in 70", not the former.

I have been more than happy with it. 
However, I wouldn't mind swapping it out for a 70" Flat Panel LCD and moving the Sony to my bedroom.
