Glow of the Screens

Share
According to several tech sites such as LifeHacker.com, April is usually the best time of the year to buy flat screen TVs. Major manufacturers are about to roll-out their latest bleeding edge technology so the old stuff has got to GO! As a result, prices usually drop drastically on last year's hot technical fads as your favorite store tries to get rid of its dust-gathering inventory. Oh boy!

Unfortunately, this year may be a bit different. Japan's incredible earthquake has had a major affect on the world's electronic supply chain. The lcd tv reviews of Sony and Hitachi production lines for prism films and anisotropic conductive film report that they may be out of commission for several months. Since these two companies account for 70% of the global supply chain, it may be next spring before the latest technological goodies will be at your local store.

For now, you'll just have to make do with your 240 Hz, 1080p, high definition home entertainment system while those in Japan try to make do with, oh, I don't know, food and water that doesn't glow.
