Can we just stop?
Kind of a natural progression. You’ll bring your rolled-up TV to the party like you used to bring a boombox or a CD player.
Get back to me when I can fold it up and put it in my back pocket.
Why ?
FTR, a 65-inch screen is 13 times bigger than an 18-inch screen.
C’mon, Scientists! It’s 2017 and I’ve been WAITING for my Flying Car since 1960! Get on the stick! I want my Flying Car, not a ‘propaganda machine’ that I can roll into a tube!
Yeesh! No one listens to me...
American tech is generations ahead of what you think...
They’ve only let it trickle down because of its implications on society. We’re in for a ride now...
I think these advancements are great.
On screen size — I think there is a point where some of these screens are getting too large for practical use in my home. This is no problem. I can just purchase smaller ones. I realize the large ones are needed for larger homes and venues.
So if the dog gets on the furniture, you can roll up the TV and slap it against your palm and say ‘down’.
this is our future.
Entire walls will be displays.
The insertable corneal screen coming soon. Will work like a heads up display.
Water, water, every where,
And all the boards did shrink;
Water, water, every where,
Nor any drop to drink.

I like looking at the sales online during the holidays. WalMart had an RCA 78 inch LED TV for just under $1,000. Fortunately for us our $2050 1080 Samsung 55 inch LCD we bought at Best Buy back in 2009 still performs well. Maybe next year. :-)
So how do you hang this thing on your the wall? With a couple of thumb tax?????
What I want is an OLED or equivalent that can be used as a computer monitor without damaging the screen with burn in.
One more thing about the future of this technology. What you’re looking at is a garden variety piece of plastic that has been inkjet printed with very exotic organic molecules. As those molecules are manufactured in mass quantities the price per unit drops dramatically. Four or five years from now that screen in the 120 inch version will cost in the neighborhood of a few dollars to produce and even with a generous markup will probably sell at a $300 to $500 price point with all the bells and whistles!
What a useless feature.
I can’t imagine any reason to have this beyond having such a small room that the TV inhibits movement. This must be for those “tiny houses” the Left is currently pushing.
Add a HUD for automobile use?
