That TV you were planning on buying in a year or 2 to support 1080p the ultimate resolution. Might as well ebay it now.
The new HDMI 1.3 spec adds a few things
- 1440p with a high refresh rate with no upper limit. Expect to see up to 120hz.
- 48bit color to display every color the eye can see. This is a nice touch.
- Smaller HDMI connectors for use on video cameras etc.
- Support for 8 channel lossless sound such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD.
- Single link bandwidth increased to 340 MHz (10.2 Gbps).
Well as impressive as it all looks, its still gonna cost, though in 10 years it will be old tech :-)
