"So you thought you had a modern day TV?..." 'James "Kimo" Rosen


So you thought you had a modern day TV? Technology is going rampant and what was state of the art yesterday will soon be a dinosaur...Costco Kaua'i is now selling Sony flat screen HD 32' TVs without wifi  for $289.00. One year ago the same TV was around $800.00.

So you thought you had a modern day TV? Technology is going rampant and what was state of the art yesterday will soon be a dinosaur... 

Technology is back, just a few years back most people, hotels, motels, restaurants and bars sold their old TV sets in favor of the new flat screen HD technology.  
 The flat screen technology is still with us with a few additions that everyone will soon be addicted too, just like they are to their cell phones and computers. The new TVs are built more like computers, the major difference in the TVs is in built-in wifi, allowing Internet access on your TV without any cables.

Along with the new TVs, Netflix a once financially struggling corporation is now one of the best stocks on the interchange.  Netflix has actually bought into most television manufacturers channel controls, you now have netflix listed as a channel on most remote controls.

It is now possible to have your own personal video library with over 30,000 movies and TV shows streamlined to your television for the low monthly price of $7.99.

The future is bright for Netflix and not so bright for the cable companies, but as far as your HDTV goes, it's time once again to buy a new one, that is until next year when you will need to buy yet another TV with features not yet thought of.  Did someone say built in web-cams, virtual 3-D and smellovision (sic)?
