Dynamic is more for static images...3000:1 is the contrast ration (lightest color to darkest color) for moving images (movies, sports, games etc.)<br>No mention of HDMI 1.3 scares me...I dunno about you but if I'm dropping 5 large CDN$ on a T.V I want to ensure it is completely future-proof. HD-DVD and BluRay will be utilising the 1.3 standard very soon...so if watching T.V is your thing--no worries. But, if you are and avvid movie fan I might sit this one out boys.<br>Hi def is at a wonky stage right now. We are at the turing point for the next gen of crazy stuff, super high contrast ratio's, ultra deep black levels, HDMI 1.3 standard, THX display certifications etc.<br>If you can wait, save your duckets, look to 2008 and by that time price levels should drop to the levels everyone has been waiting for. Of course by that time SED and OLED might be on the market--so you'll always have super high priced items. Regardless, by 08' the HD trends shold reveal more about what display type is likely the pinnacle--and of course how good the up and coming technologies are relative to LCD/Plasma/DLP, LCoS.<br>  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chris]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2007 12:59PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sharp's AQUOS R-series of LCDs announced]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/02/20/sharps-aquos-r-series-of-lcds-announced/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/02/20/sharps-aquos-r-series-of-lcds-announced/</guid><description><![CDATA[From what i can see, the 92/93 series is exactly the same "quality" just these have extra features specific to the Japanese area, which is why they are only being released in Japan.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ryker Abel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 24th 2007 9:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sharp's AQUOS R-series of LCDs announced]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/02/20/sharps-aquos-r-series-of-lcds-announced/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/02/20/sharps-aquos-r-series-of-lcds-announced/</guid><description><![CDATA[the TV's/Monitors don't really need HDMI 1.3.  The only difference between 1.2 and 1.3 HDMI is support for the two newest uncompressed audio protocols form Dolby and DTS.  Only the source component and the audio components need to support 1.3 HDMI.  Since any system that will ever utilize these standards will have external seperate audio systems, there is no need to have them in the TV.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ryker Abel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 25th 2007 9:51AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
