Samsung HL67A750: Although CNET did not review the 67-inch Samsung HL67A750 we did review the 61-inch Samsung's HL61A750. Judging from their specification sheets, the two Panasonic rear-projection HDTVs are basically identical but for screen size, so we expect the review of the 61-inch model to give a good indication of how the...; Tags: Samsung HL67A750, Samsung Electronics Co.

Toshiba Regza 42RV530U: During the last year flat-panel HDTV prices seemed to hit a plateau, where the standard bricklike downward trend leveled off somewhat. Now, however, prices are on the decline again, opening up bigger screen sizes to lower price ranges.

Samsung HL61A750: Rear-projection HDTVs, as a category, are on their way out, and DLP-based sets are the only microdisplay choice available, now that all manufacturers of LCD- and LCoS-based rear-projection displays have basically ceased production.

Optimus Maximus: Despite its innovative approach to keyboard design, the OLED-based Optimus Maximus keyboard is best considered an expensive novelty. Its $1,600 price tag keeps it out of the hands of the average consumer, and we also question the practical benefit of using 113 customizable OLED screens as an input device.

LG Chocolate 3 (Verizon Wireless): One could argue that as the Razr was to Motorola, the Chocolate was to LG.
