Oh, add onto the end of that model number another hyphen (-) and your choice of B, R, or W for Black, Red Wine, or White which are your bezel color choices (are they really marketing to gamers with colors like Red Wine?). They are apparently very bright and offer a 176 degree viewing angle.
They could have the brightness of the sun and a 344 degree viewing angle and I still wouldn’t pay $1600 for a 32-inch LCD TV. The backlighting will supposedly last for 60,000 hours, which is good considering if I were to buy one I’d be stuck with it till it did wear out just for posterity.
So, if you have a game console, this wouldn’t be a bad choice for an LCD TV, but if it were me, I’d go with a larger DLP for a lot less dough, sure the viewing angles and brightness on DLP’s suck unless they are in the dark, but I like gaming in the dark more anyways. By the way, just for reference, I did a quick Google products search, and without even sorting to find the cheapest, the top result was a respectable JVC 32” LCD from Circuit City for $649.99.

Wow, thats a very neat concept I haven’t ever seen something like this before. I woldn’t mind seeing them turned on in real life or in a picture and see how it spans out and if it makes you more into the game.

NeutralFrom the sounds of it you’re a bit confused. This isn’t 3 LCD monitors tied together like in the picture, that’s just showing the options for the bezel color. These are just regular LCD screens, but they’re pitching them to gamers because they’re brighter than normal and have a pretty wide viewing angle.

Oh, oops my bad. Sorry about that, thanks for the clarifcation. I kind-of thought it would be wierd to have one whole picture get split into different screens.
I need to get to bed early today, todays not my day. :-)
I appreciate it Orclev.
