I guess we're a little more fortunate here in Australia then.

Good 3#-)

As for the Trinitron design, don't forget a lot of them are still using
shadow masks as part of their design, and not only that, but Sony does have
the patent on the FD Trinitron (ie. The purely flat tube), so that's got the
competition stuffed again because now everybody is drooling over the Wega
while the other companies have to wait until the patent expires for that one
3#-)

Sucks to the imitators. Heh.

Adios,

I would agree that Sony's non-portable equipement has taken a nose dive
in quality over the past decade. Their VCRs and TVs used to be the cream
of the crop, but not anymore.

Their screens used to be head and shoulders above the rest because of the
Trinitron screens. Now they license Trinitron screens to other
manufacturers, and many of the competing screen technologies are catching
up, so their advantages (and the reasons people would pay more for them)
are gradually disappearing, so they have had to cut prices. Perhaps they
haven't been able to sustain the quality as the prices drop?
