Ooooo.... imagine changing the decor of your house by simply changing the channel of the “wallpaper” . Flippin killer application for interior design. Not to mention for watching NASCAR football or Iron Man.

I tried infrared emitting quantum dots for labeling biological samples for imaging a few years ago, and was disappointed in their performance. They did not fluoresce as brightly as regular infrared dyes in imaging.

Perhaps they will work better in HDTV applications and the like. I don’t know. But in my experience, they did not live up to the hype.

Sure, till you realize that it's off level by a couple of degrees and have to strip it off and try again. And again. And again. :)

UV and IR bands available. So, it could double as a tanning bed and a space heater.

I bought a 32’ Vizio on 12/2. My failed.

I spent some time getting everything hooked up and it all worked. I gradually tweaked the custom settings till it suited. I switched HDMI inputs to the computer and there was the cable box. It was there on all three HDMI inputs.

To make a long story short, I chatted with Vizio on line, did a reset and all was ok.Except, that night it was all HDMI again. I chatted again a week later and learned there was a firmware glitch causing the problem. If you turned off the speakers, the HDMI ports became corrupted and there was a signal from HDMI port 1 distributed to all three.

Vizio is making a firmware change and will put it on the web. The change will be downloaded to a thumb drive and input through the TV USB port.

Strange and for an old guy like me......... complex

The TV is very good once tweaked and the ability to switch inputs to my dedicated computer with a hard drive full of programming is great.

When I was a kid TV’s you could hang on a wall were science fiction fantasy. Now I have a 50” plasma about three inches thick.

I can only imagine how cool these TV’s will be.
