Flat panel televisions are great, but they still have one obvious flaw, you still have to connect the wires. That is, until now. Amimon, makers of a wireless video transmission technology, called WHDI, has teamed up with Sharp to incorporate this innovation into a new line of flat panel LCD televisions, dubbed the X-Series. WHDI will eliminate the need to connect video cables, including HDMI cables, from source components to the television. The new LCD line from Sharp will feature 37, 42, or 46-inch screen sizes. The WHDI equipped wireless sets will be available in Japan first, but should make their way to U.S. later this year or early next, if they are well received.

NEW DELHI: LG Electronics launched its Scarlet TV, also known as the LG60. At just 45 millimeters thick, the TV, is LG's thinnest flat-panel TV yet.

With a striking, slim silhouette, red-coloured back and round aperture surrounded by LED lights, the Scarlet sports a design intended to connect with viewers on an emotional level. A soft touch sensor makes even simple tasks like turning the TV on or off more tactile and appealing.

Intelligent Sensor analyses ambient light and automatically adjusts the screen’s brightness to the optimal level for any room at any time of day.

This is the Dvico FusionHDTV7 and it makes a claim to be the World’s first dual HDTV (digital or QAM) tuner PCIe card, basically it’s the first PCIe card capable of recording two HDTV channels at once. The FusionHDTV7 can tune into analog NTSC or digital ATSC, this is like many other HDTV tuner cards, but these other cards cannot record two high definition shows at once, so that may include you watching a live program, while it records another channel.

You may say “I can get all these features with two cards”, but with the FusionHDTV costing around $140, I am sure it’s a cheaper solution and also one that says you PCI space. The main features on the FusionHDTV card include a multi functional MCE remote control, true HD time-shifting with FF/REW/Positioning, low heat emission design for PC eco-system, simultaneous 2 Channel recording Picture-in-Picture, automatic Power-On Recording with Real-Time-Clock, supports Vista 32bit & 64bit certified drivers, and the device also supports Digital cable (64QAM/256QAM) and ATSC terrestrial reception.
