At press time, a spokeswoman for Sharp said that the company had not named a price for the new PN-655 LCD monitor, which features 1920 x 1080, two megapixel high-definition resolution, response time of 6 ms and a viewing angle greater than 170 degrees.
The company's Dual-Fine Engine technology was included, to help the display show off PC as well as video content. The PN-655 also contains a four-wavelength spectrum, cold-cathode fluorescent backlight that provides an enhanced color spectrum including deeper, more vibrant and vivid reds," according to the company. A technique called Bright Pixel Elimination culls "stuck-on" white pixels, to make a failed pixel "invisible to the viewer," Sharp said.
