I must confess, I love watching TV but the sets themselves generally fail to ignite my enthusiasm. So it’s a sign of how cool this new HD DLP from Mitsubishi is that it got me interested; not for the specs – though 57-inches and 1080p are pretty special – but for the achingly thin bezel around the screen.
Up until now if you’ve wanted something vaguely different to the usual “slap it in a black frame” design of LCD or Plasma screens you’ve had to splash out on a Bang & Olufsen set (and trust me, I would if I could afford it) or go for one of the customised wood’n'leather models you see occasionally. Not much choice if all you want is a screen that looks as though it’s floating on its own. Now, the $2,800 WD-57734 offers just that at a reasonable price, together with a handful of image processing technologies that promise to make the whole thing perform a lot better.
The WD-57734 has PerfecTint, DeepField Imager (dynamic contrast adjustment within an image), SharpEdge (which does pretty much what the name suggests), Dark Detailer for crisp blacks, as well as a front HDMI port (plus three more on the back) and NetCommand, Mitsubishi’s home theatre set-up which can control independent components via IR. There’s even a USB port to show photos from a memory stick.
The WD-57734 should be available now.

Check out the LED DLP’s from Samsung. LED has numerous benefits over old lamp+wheel DLP’s.
And these have razor thin bezel, reduced depth, hidden speakers, etc, etc. Only downside is largest is 61″ presently.

There’s no doubt Samsung makes one of the best TVs on the market.
