HDTV Products – Looking Into the Future

The following article originally appeared in HDTVetc magazine in their August 2004 issue. It contains product information that is likewise, dated to mid-2004. The products in this article were "New" when originally published and should obviously not be considered as such when reading today. Although this article has some historical value, the primary value is the analysis to reach a forecasted vision of future market conditions (which eventually came to pass). This assisted many consumers in making more informed purchasing decisions. Reading the Analysis and Conclusions section is almost like time-travel: The historic vision has now transformed itself into current events and conditions ... mostly (we are still waiting for some of them to happen).
