Beds with built-in LCD TV’s have almost become common place these days; however, the new Ruf-Cinema LCD TV / Bed combo is the nicest we have seen both in terms of features as well as style. This new combo features a sleek silver center console and bed side tables as well as a projection screen that rises at the simple push of a button.
The center console of the bed holds the projector and has extra racks for books, magazines, remotes, etc. Any video game console or DVD Player can also be used. You can see more photos on the official product page but we were not able to find any pricing information. However, you can bet it will be very expensive.
From what I have seen, everyone wants to get HDTV and to watch television programming in the highest clarity possible. In my experience, watching television shows and sporting events in HDTV is ten times better than watching in standard definition and the difference is apparent when you flip from the normal version of a channel to the HD version of that same channel.
However, according to the New York Times, fewer people are ponying up the dough to upgrade to HDTV: “According to a recent survey by Frank N. Magid Associates, the number of people buying [HD] sets who are looking forward to watching television shows in hi-def format has actually declined, to 47 percent from 63 percent two years ago. And while nearly half of current owners of HDTV sets said that their main reason for buying one was to watch programs in HD, only 25 percent of those now shopping for the sets feel that way.”
What is your take? Do you think HDTV is not worth the price?
