Xceive, announced its "Breckenridge" reference design for small-size and transportable hybrid TVs and is demonstrating what it claims is the world's smallest high-definition TV (HDTV).
If this thing outputs HD, assuming 1338?? x 768 ?? or 1448x1024 ?? (i don`t know tbh), then it means taking the dots that make-up u`r 20" monitor and compressing them to a 7" size, approximately a 3:1 scale.
Now tell me this, do u feel u would tell the difference between that HD picture @ 7" and a picture 1024 x 640 taken down to 7" - I would doubt that very much.
But, looking forward, u can see that what they`re doing here is entertaining future resolutions on a small scale. Empowering things to be HD compatible without the hinderance of not being able to do it cos of resolution standards.
Raising a standard is good. It`ll lead to the likes of u`r mobile phones moving in suit from 320x240 (8 bit computer screen size of 20 years ago) - as of course all that`ll require is something like a quarter of the 7" - possibly 704 x576 ? - a whole size Pal tv output.
