The SunTimes had this interesting story on Motorola's development of Carbon Nanotube Technology and its potential to produce clear, flat, large and cheap televisions. According to the story there is a possibility to create 42 inch screens that would sell for $400. I'm too cheap to pay more than a $1,000 for a television - I just can't do it.
What is odd is that while the story was in Monday's paper and does appear to reference some current events (like an upcoming convention), but the latest mention on Motorola's site is from July, 2003.
So is the story exceptionally stale or hugely cutting edge? I'm leaning toward stale, but you never know. I'm just hoping that my TV holds out long enough.
