It's a 24 inch 3D television and you may be asking yourself "what's to get excited about?"  It's a nice looking set of course, and includes LED edge lighting, a 240Hz refresh rate and active shutter 3D. The really cool part isn't the TV though - it's the technology baked into the TV. The PlayStation 3D display is the first set that offers SimulView.  It's a use of 3D technology that's aimed directly at gamers.  What SimulView does is allow two people to watch completely different things on the same TV.  Instead of playing split-screen which limits your vision and gives your friend an edge up in the competition if he's looking at your screen, you both get a 2D full-screen experience.

It's becoming more common for projectors, receivers and other devices to support 4K2K technology, but before you go bumping up to the next big thing, you may want to check out the next bigger thing - UHDTV. Ultra high-definition television is absolutely ridiculous.  You're getting a resolution of 7680 × 4320, which equates to over 33 million pixels on the screen at once.  If that doesn't shame your 1080p set, nothing will.

The folks at Atlantic Technology are pretty intense about quality.  They're going to be creating a good chunk of new products utilizing their H-PAS bass technology and they'd like to bring to market quickly.  Other companies may outsource to a third party manufacturer, but not Atlantic. "We've recognized a need to expand the scale of our activities without diluting our brand along those paths chosen by some of our competitors," says Atlantic president Peter Tribesman.  He says that quite a few products using H-PAS are planned and they'll be bringing those to stores soon.  "What we will not do," he adds, "is to put our logo on dime-a-dozen contractor speakers or disappoint our loyal dealer base."

It's easy to rag on streaming video.  The video quality from sources like Hulu and Netflix is pretty disappointing and if you're looking for more than stereo sound you'll be sorely disappointed. Vudu is different though.  From the onset, the company has been aimed at providing high quality streaming to its customer base and today they've taken it a step further.  For the first time ever, 7.1 channel audio will be available via a streaming video service.

As A/V and home cinema enthusiasts, I'm sure many of you have spent countless hours reading about audio and video products, and home theatre upgrades.  We've drooled over installations and do it yourself projects featured in magazines and Internet forums while planning our dream cinemas. But asside from that one scene in MTV's Cribs where the star of the week bragged about thier in-house theatres, there haven't been many television shows where you can see the before and after progress of a home cinema / man cave upgrades...until now.

For those of us with really nice home theater setups,  the thought of getting a movie at home while it's still in theaters is an incredible one.  At the price of $60 it makes economic sense if you have a few people over and you take into account the 500% markup on popcorn prices. Universal was planning to make the Eddie Murphy movie 'Tower Heist' available just 21 days after it hit theaters  but theater owners fought against it with gusto.
