    > 45" 4:3 1080p LCD Display TV: Will it Hit Most Global Markets?

    A The display does weigh 106 lbs, though likely no more than my 32" CRT. AVLink said they don't as yet have a North American distributor, so I certainly wouldn't be consider buying one at least until then; and I've yet to get the price for one. But according to the specs and other details on...

    > 45" 4:3 1080p LCD Display TV: Will it Hit Most Global Markets?

    Well, at least a ~ 42" 4:3 display would be my preference. Yes, lots of discussion about this solution at AVS and other forums years ago. We had hoped then that leading OLED panel maker LG and others would somehow partner to offer such user configurable panels. Conceivably, one could thereby...

    From your explanation, I don't see how it makes black bars virtually, much less completely, vanish from view, though no expert on this. But I did very seriously consider pursuing a projector solution long ago: Merely, choose a model accepting interchangeable and good quality 1.85:1 and 4:3...

    My goodness, how many times elsewhere have I heard that thoughtful but incredibly CLUNKY solution? In any case, like a super thick TV bezel, wouldn't I be too much noticing the curtains, unless the room were pitch black dark? Nice try, though.

    > 45" 4:3 1080p LCD Display TV: Will it Hit Most Global Markets?

    I fully understand and appreciate this kind of criticism. Continued existence for all life on this planet will get more treacherous and expensive for all the reasons which the more informed, rational and fair minded of us are aware of, but can sadly do little about; too much time passed and too...

    > 45" 4:3 1080p LCD Display TV: Will it Hit Most Global Markets?

    I've never had problems with monaural movie or TV soundtracks, at least not if that's how the thing was produced. But sound quality for me is everything-even more important than picture quality. Thus, as for playback hardware, for my "4:3" room, my 32" Toshiba CRT sits between a pair of large...

    Hardly. Of course, it's lunacy to think that vertical and horizontal black bars can be completely eliminated. Instead, it's a matter of being able to minimize the size of the thickest vertical or horizontal bar, relative to the native aspect ratio of your TV's screen. For example, very wide...

    > 45" 4:3 1080p LCD Display TV: Will it Hit Most Global Markets?

    For years I've proposed this kind of product at numerous A/V forums, but have been met with at least 75% catcalls. And this was true even among those with large collections of vintage pre-1953 movies and pre-2000 TV shows. Do they actually prefer having to either zoom in to crop off content to...

    > 45" 4:3 1080p LCD Display TV: Will it Hit Most Global Markets?

    BINGO??? Okay, it's not an OLED or even a 4K screen. But will a > 45" 1080p 4:3 display with HDMI input soon be available in a market near you? But if you're fed up with having to crop and lose content from your 1:33: 1 movies and TV shows just to view them on your 16:9 display without vertical...
