* That's 332cm (130") wide, and 187 cm (74") high!
* 9 times more picture area than a 50" TV!

Theoretically, they can just "stitch" nine 50" 1080p panels together to make a 5760x3240 resolution panel - the problem might be a video processor that's actually powerful enough to drive this resolution without turning it into a full fledged computer.

Heard about this, about a week ago. Even if I could afford it, i got nowhere to put it. Of course you could always use it & open up a Drive-in movie.

Wow, imagine how bad watching TV stations would look on that

But hey, if it's better than my 25" CRT I'll take it... JK
