Though neither LG nor Philips showcased a thin LCD in their spring lineups, their joint display development group LG.Philips is proudly displaying this 47″ Ultra-Slim 120Hz LCD. How slim? 19.8mm, or about .77 inches, making it a lot thinner than the LCD TVs Hitachi is launching, and only a tad thicker than some of the other concepts we’ve seen. What’s nice is that LG.Philips had the courtesy to show “before” and “after” shots of just how slender it had become. More shots and product details in the gallery. [LG.Philips]
Oh LG.Philips you are cruel. You teased us with your 4,096 A4 electronic paper last year and now you are at it again with this A4 (14.3-inches diagonal) 16 million colour model, with 7,000 hours between charges using a typical battery. LG.Philips says that the penetration of the technology would be fast in Korea. Meanwhile, we will have to settle with just licking it in Vegas. Along with the rest of the other cool-always-coming-never-arriving technologies. [Korea Times]
