| Olevia Unveils 65-Inch LCOS Projection TV
Syntax-Brillian, manufacturer of the Olevia brand of high definition LCD TVs, has unveiled several new technologies, including 120 Hz LCD TVs, and a 65-inch LCOS projection TV. Olevias 565 65-inch LCOS projection TV was on display at the firms booth during the 2007 International CES earlier this month. Utilizing Liquid Crystal On Silicon (LCOS) reflective technology rather than a transmittive technology, the firm describes it as taking the best of LCD technology and combining it with the advantages of DLP. The firm also debuted a new line of LCD TVs operating at 120 Hz, bringing response time to a speedy 4 ms. These new models are expected to ship in Q3 2007.

Sound Advice: DLP TV takes the top prize for picture, price
Q: My first question is, how do DLP [digital light processing] TVs rate against LCD and plasma? My second question regards the lock cable has on digital TV.

Cable (and satellite) hardly have a lock on digital TV -- far from it! You can receive network programming for free on any HDTV set with a digital tuner, or with any other TV when used in conjunction with a digital tuner.
Buying HD TV a super experience
It used to be that if I bought the chips and dip, the Budweisers and the rib-eye steaks, I could assemble enough friends to fill all six seats in my living room for an annual Super Bowl fest. But not last year. That's because one of my friends - we will call him R.M. - broke from tradition and purchased a 50-inch Panasonic plasma HD television. So in 2006, I enlisted a designated driver to carry me to and from the Super Bowl XL party, which was held just off McLeod Road. But I am back in the running to host the 2007 Super Bowl extravaganza. Last week, after listening to the owner of a 50-inch plasma television complain throughout the Fiesta Bowl about the “crappy picture" on my 32-inch ProScan TV, I had a decision to make: Tell R.M.
