My grandmother always reminisced about how huge the leap was between black and white television to colored television. Apparently, everyone went crazy for colored television Changes in television have occurred in a way that can be compared to a logarithmic curve: the transformation at first are staggering; however as time passes, changes become more miniscule.
The newest improvements are LCD televisions or flat panel televisions. My father is a technology buff and recently browsed through LCD televisions. He loves searching for the best deals possible. He ended up searching online for LCD televisions and found that the deepest discounts were at online superstores. Televisions seem to be improving with sharper images and a thinner build. On top of quality, people are seeking flat panel televisions.
What will be the next change in technology be? Perhaps, the next huge leap will be into holographic images. CNN was the first to reveal holograms that were used in a practical manner. One day, they may become accessible to the general public. Until then, we have LCD televisions at the breaking edge of mainstream technology.
