In that overly-dramatized photo above, LG is touting the wonders of their newest
120Hz LCDs coupled with their latest take on the wooden bezel. The new XCANVAS models share the
stylings of their previous wood sets and ship in Korea with 42- (42LY4D), 47- (47LY4D), and 52-inch (52LY4D) panel options. Other than a 178-degree viewing angle, latest XD processing engine, and a USB-host jack for a quick audio or image fix, the machine translated details are notably scant. Fine by us, we're not feeling the whole natural TV thing anyway.
LG has begun shipping those wooden-framed LCDs that were announced back in August, with three models priced at 3.4 million won ($3,621 US) for the 42-inch 42LY4D model, 4.5M won ($4,793) for the 47-inch 47LY4D, and 5.5M won ($5,858) for the 52-inch 52LY4D at Korean retailers. All sets include 178-degree "TruV" viewing angle, a USB port for multimedia content viewing, and the 120Hz 1080p XD engine. No word on whether you can get it in a black cherry finish to match your bedroom armoire.
