This got me to thinking - the Philips ad for the flat screen
TV appears as if it might be a 16:9 format (hard to tell). 
Since the last I heard these were in the range of $15,000
(3 college kids with one - yeah, right) does anybody have
a clue as to why they are running national level ads? Seems
expensive to advertise a product that's still mostly vaporware
unless they expect some kind of technology breakthru that will
dramatically reduce the price...

THANKS
