beaker:

With CRT tvs you could get designers to come up with something new and spectacular looking (Avant, MX, AV9000) but how hard is it to design a flat screen tv. Its a rectangle with a chrome strip round it. What else is there to actually design on it?

Edit. Just actually looked at the link and it hasnt got a chrome edge but still, its a rectangle with little else involved.

Thats the thing....thats not really anything to design really! Hardly a feat of design. At least with B&O if you look at it you can tell its B&O....look at this tv still can't tell if its a Toshiba or Samsung!

If you click on a headline on the original link it appears LG will launching a 31" OLED in March for £6,000 which must be very worrying for B&O!

that is very nice... the gap is closing between B&O and other manufacturers. In all fairness, B&O televisions such as the BV8 and BV10 are starting to look blatantly over priced... that's my two cents anyway...

Apologies for repeated edits in that first post.

Reading the specifications on the Toshiba site, this TV has the potential to take sales from B&O customers not satisified with B&O software & connectivity etc, but subject to a number of as-yet unknowns inc sound quality and probable need to take the Lintronics route for Beo4 control.

Using the Jensen design house is a blatant attempt by Toshiba to seek comparison with B&O!

A new Jensen designed Toshiba thin TV has been announced. The glass screen in front of a metal edging is reminiscent of several B&O TV's.
