For a site all about reading, mistaking myriad as a synonym for 'number' rather than 'many' is disappointing. Counting (GNU)/Linux twice doesn't help.
25" diagonal with 3200×1800 would be perfect for most of my passive reading activities, and the frame rate would have to be dismal for me to be disappointed. The price quoted ($1500 -- I assume USD) is stupidly steep though. As a commenter on the announcement observed, 8999 yen ~= AUD $110 ... which is stupidly cheap, if that's real.
EDIT - thank you to the three people, each 1m apart, that corrected my mistake (still present above) about pricing.
- rjmunro 5y agoWhy does it need to support operating systems at all? If it's got an HDMI connector, I'd like it to support HDMI specification signals no matter how I generate them (blu-ray player, set top box, camera etc.)
- cehrlich 5y agoThe price is in Yuan, so unfortunately the $1500 is correct. However, this being the first of its kind gives me real hope that a few years from now something like this will be affordable.
- kevinwang 5y agoIt says ships from China, so that's 8999 Yuan, not yen. Which means the $1500 is correct.
