Some interesting news I recently came across again from CES that wasn't posted in here...
Toshiba, one of LCOS's biggest supporters so far, anounced that they were dropping production of LCOS based RPTV's this coming year and would start to produce DLP based sets! Somewhat related, Samsung is due start producing 1080p capable DLP sets using Texas Instruments xHD3 chip. I would imagine Toshiba will be utilizing the xHD3 chip as well as I doubt they'll go from 1080p LCOS to 720p DLP and shortly thereafter have to change again to the 1080p DLP.
While Toshiba was dropping production of LCOS sets, Intel a world leader in chip production anounced it would start to manufacture LCOS chips in competition to Texas Instruments DLP chips. Maybe we'll start to see MS LCOS TV's bundled with X-box's?....lol
