Don't expect to hear about them until April at the earliest. Sony was a few months late in shipping the XBR2 SXRDs so they aren't going to announce anything until they are closer to the ship date.

They have completely redesigned cabinets, HDMI 1.3 and a new optical engine which he says produces a dramatically improved picture. You could tell he was just bursting to tell more but obviously couldn't. I'm not buying anything until I see this new line. They will be out in August.

This is how they have been doing it since I have been following their TVs. I'm in the market for a 70-80" TV. The current 70XBR2 was disappointing. There was really no TV out their that made me want to buy it. I'm hoping for either a 65 or greater thin DLP or LCOS with laser light and good contrast level.

What didn't you like about the 70" Sony? Must have been poorly calibrated or something. I have been looking at the RPTV's in the 70" range and the Sony blows them ALL away.

By then I can pick one up for around 4500. Which is 500 less than we can get one now. Time will tell. Its just 5 1/2 months away. I still have to build a custom cabinet for it so it gives me more time to focus in that.![]()
