Sony's 9.9mm Thin LCD HDTV

Sony just unveiled the KDL-40ZX1, which at just 9.9mm is the world's thinnest LCD HDTV. The Sony HDTV panel nearly halves the depth of Hitachi's thin model, and comes extremely close to Pioneer's ultra thin concept TV.

This Sony Bravia HDTV panel features LED backlighting, a 3000:1 contrast ratio, 120 Hz MotionFlow tech, x.v. Color and Bravia Engine 2 image processing. This is the closest you'll get to having a window as your HDTV for quite a while. There is only one HDMI port on the TV itself. All other HDMI/USB/component ports are found on the base station, which can be wired or wireless. It will be available in Japan for $4,474 on November 10th.

the space this will reclaim in my living room will be enough to feed a small village in a third world country.

Manufacturers of sony LCD-TV tend to focus on technology with little consideration for customer needs. Sony always researched customer behavior in order to learn more about customer needs in an effort to reduce the gap between technology and customer needs Sony always know about customer's need.
