Samsung LED9000: It's a bit slim
The 9000 series features all of the trappings of a high-end HDTV which now of course includes 3-D support via active shutter glasses. Like Toshiba's Cell TV, the 9000's processor can also convert your two-dimensional video to 3-D. Also on board is Wi-Fi to connect to the new Samsung Apps store--a bet that we will enjoy loading our Samsung-branded televisions, Blu-ray players and smartphones with applications like those we're already enjoying on our iPod toches and iPhones.
Samsung didn't whip out the touchscreen remote at the press conference, but I'm looking forward to two screens at once in their booth tomorrow. Availability is sometime this year, with price currently unknown. Here's the remore:

Looks like an antenna. From the side, at least. Will it feature a matte screen or glossy or what? How's the picture quality?
I'm guessing this thing is going to start off in the $3000-$5000 range? Especially if it's upwards of 32 inches or more? That's waaay out of my budget.
Why can't they do that with their new e-reader slate? I think it is kinda dumb to have the technology and now use it.
Yet another reason for kids to fight over the remote.
I've been curious about the screen-thickness fights ever since we broke about the 2 inch thickness mark. If its hanging on the wall, is that 1.5 inches of space really that important of real-estate. I for one don't commonly walk within inches of my tv. Anyone have practical reasons for this besides the cool factor?
The practicality I see for me personally with making these screens thinner and thinner, would be placing the television itself flush with the wall, and all information being transferred via wifi or another wireless medium. Can you imagine the TV being flush with the wall without a single wire except power? Which with the 'new' (The technology has been around for many years) induction powering craze that hit the mobile electronics market, perhaps they can extend that to the home electronics market.
Just my thoughts*
They should make it one size so you can mount it on the wall if you want. kinda neat.
I'm going to wait for video wall paper. A long time ago, a Pop Sci article predicted it would come on a roll and it would make wall sized screens. Clearly, unless I find at least a six figure job, I can't afford one of the current giant screens. I may still be able to afford wallpaper in a few years.
wow i bet this is going to be astronomically expensive. any one know where i can get a price
Seriously, Kaccount this is going to cost a whole lott of benjamins. Soon tvs are going to be so thin that an open window in the living room is going to blow the screen over. Still realllly awesome. I know this isn't going to take up much space in my crib. And that remote? DOPE.
It will attract many customers in the future. http://www.amerisleep.com/
Samsung is going whole hog into 3-D with their newly announced TV lineup, but at the top is the 9000 series: an LED-backlit panel that's just 0.3 inches thin. Oh man, that's the skinniest thing I've ever seen!
