[citation][nom]bpeglow[/nom]They keep upping the resolution on smartphones and tablet PCs. Meanwhile the HDTV/monitor market has been stuck at 1920x1080 for years.[/citation]
i got a 1920x1200 monitor, next step up was over 1000$ more than this monitor so i didnt take it.
[citation][nom]internetlad[/nom]Lol too true, do you REALLY need super-hi res graphics for an 10.1 inch screen?[/citation]
the higher the resolution the better 2d applications are on it. im thinking things like websites, along with books.
or even, if a company partnered with wacom, an advanced tablet made for drawing.
a high resolution screen is nice. and the more these are made in bulk, the cheaper they get.
heres hopeing that in a few years bulk 2560x1600 will come to the pc, and not be a special item that requires 1500$ to get anything of value.
and also
[citation][nom]eklipz330[/nom]ok now im pissed. we dont even have that kinda tech on tv's and BARELY on monitors! DONT TELL ME THAT TABLET TECHNOLOGY IS AHEAD OF THE CURVE, OR I WILL STAB SOMEONE[/citation]
tv shows arent brodcast in anything above 1080p if i remember correctly, and the only thing that would be higher res than now would be a sporting event.
and if you want a 4k theater, you go projector, not monitor.
and hd wont get a bump for another 5-10 years, when there is a massive increase in picture quality, not incremental like this is.
