Where is that petition please? -- Regards, David I wouldn't bother - have you ever watched HD? The only difference is that they use a better camera and intensify the colours and contrast more, then use more close ups. It's like watching the French football coverage, that has HD quality compared to UK pictures! See for yourself next time. How you can have HD on a poor quality LCD screen is anyone's guess. When LCD is out of the way and SED and others are at the right price we might be able to move on. LCD is crap with the smearing effects caused by slow refresh rates. Companies stopped making LCD TVs last year anyway, all you're buying now is the stockpiled surplus. That's why many STILL have a 25-30mS refresh rate on grey to grey, not even black to black as that would be a higher figure, and no digital freeview tuner. The public were conned over LCD. People only bought them because some have to have the latest stuff no matter how overpriced or crap it is. CRT is the way to go, it provides a far superior picture. SED is a flat CRT technology. There are now other displays being used on camcorders and laptops that use a new generation of LED. So watch out for those too. |

LCD technology continues to improve, and has massive ongoing investment behind it. Your idea that this is just some anti-consumer conspiracy is ridiculous. CRT is the way to go, it provides a far superior picture. No, it doesn't. It has plenty of flaws of its own. SED is a flat CRT technology. That's not how I would describe it. But how it works is irrelevant. What matters is that you can't buy one, and may never be able to, or may only be able to buy one at an enormous price. Time will tell. Toshiba have now withdrawn from SED development, leaving Canon to go it alone. There are now other displays being used on camcorders and laptops that use a new generation of LED. So watch out for those too. Yes, OLEDs or something else may be the future display technology of choice. But not yet. |

I'd rather they used a large portion of the available bandwidth to increase the bit rates of the existing freeview channels. I'd second that. I saw HD for the first time in Argos last week; ten expensive tvs showing a demonstration disc of houses in Italy apparently. Quite jerky with /lots/ of compression artifacts, really looked very disappointing - especially for a demo. The extra resolution seemed to be ,just gobbled up with ringing. Too much colour too. |
