Sharp's AQUOS P Series of TVs: world's first 22- and 26-inch 1080p LCDs {Engadget HD}
Oct 31st 2007 5:30AM These are PC displays / second televisions. 1080P would be great for these uses.
As others have pointed out, 1080P certainly is better than 720P if you sit close enough...
Sharp's AQUOS LC-32GS is "world's first" 1080p 32-inch LCD: why? {Engadget HD}
Dec 13th 2006 3:37AM 30 inch computer monitors have an aspect ratio of 16:10 not the 16:9 ratio that televisions use.
This could indeed be a great convergence device. Hopefully it will be the standard 16:9 shape and not cost as much as they're saying. (And hopefully those speakers come off!)
My note to the FCC re HDTV {Blog Maverick}
May 22nd 2004 4:42PM A distribution of inexpensive, HD/computer monitor and analog television compatible ATSC tuners sounds like a great idea. I've been using a Sony wide screen computer CRT (GDM-FW900) to display HDTV and it's excellent. With a little manual letterboxing, it has made for a 16:9 picture of around 21.5 inches, which has been great for my bedroom. Unfortunately, I think the FW900 and most of the other Sony computer CRTs have been recently discontinued, but there is certainly a huge installed base of computer CRTs out there along with a variety of current models. (It would be nice if someone were to come out with another wide screen computer CRT.)
