[opendtv] Re: 1080p - bah - CMO makes 2160p LCD (56")

On the same basis that NTSC is best viewed at 7.15x the picture height 
and 1035-line HDTV at 3.3 x the picture height (30 cycle/degree 
effective maximum visual resolution), it's 1.5 x the picture height, 
which, for a 16:9 56-inch display, is just over 42 inches.

TTFN,
Mark
