By Mark Wilson The Grand HD Cinema does indeed take USB video (along with audio) and upconvert the stream to a 720p HDMI signal that can drive six different HDMI devices. As a means to get clips from PMPs to TVs it certainly makes a lot of sense. The Grand HD Cinema is available for $140 imported from Japan. [Lan...

By Ben Popken For those of you thinking about buying an HDTV for the SuperBowl, just remember that you don't need to be springing for that 1080p. This game will not be broadcast in 1080p and no SuperBowl ever has. For The Big Game viewing purposes, a 1080i or 720p will do just fine. It's just an unconfirmed rum...

We recommend buying a set with 1080p, or so-called "Full HD," resolution, especially since the price premium for 1080p is shrinking. But we caution against ruling out TVs with 720p resolution, the best of which are fine performers that offer significant v...

Compared to the standard TH-50PX80, the set has a lower claimed contrast ratio—10,000:1, instead of 15,000:1— and one less HDMI input (there's no front HDMI input as there is on the 50PX80). Th...

How does it look, and is it worth $50?
