The thing to look for is, apparantly, the ability to do multiple 'picture in picture', if it can do that it really is the 'Spurs Engine' Cell HD TV.

Really looking forward to seeing this reviewed a couple of times. ]]>Nov 11th 2008 10:37AMhttp://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2008/11/11/toshibas-1080p-regza-zv-series-lcd-hdtvs-get-priced-and-dated/http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2008/11/11/toshibas-1080p-regza-zv-series-lcd-hdtvs-get-priced-and-dated/Nov 11th 2008 4:06PMhttp://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2008/11/11/toshibas-1080p-regza-zv-series-lcd-hdtvs-get-priced-and-dated/http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2008/11/11/toshibas-1080p-regza-zv-series-lcd-hdtvs-get-priced-and-dated/
It's a little confusing but from what I've seen it's supposed to be the Toshiba ZF 40ZF575D & the 46ZF575D that have the 'Resolution+' & Cell processor for SD upscaling, but there is dispute about those model numbers and their spec regarding Cell
(some forums say they are 'only' SRT sets).

I've read that the HD TVs with Cell aren't coming out until Jan 09 even in Japan.

I have a feeling there is some confusion between 'resolution +' & SRT going on atm.]]>Nov 11th 2008 6:36PMhttp://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2008/11/11/toshibas-1080p-regza-zv-series-lcd-hdtvs-get-priced-and-dated/http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2008/11/11/toshibas-1080p-regza-zv-series-lcd-hdtvs-get-priced-and-dated/

Japanese companies are famous for their high-quality service provided worldwide. Any partner of a Japanese company expects a discreet and trustworthy business way. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look as it seems.
In our case, Japanese corporations’ representatives working in Russia and the CIS have elaborated an excellent fraud scheme including money-laundering, kickback clients and employees, asset misappropriation etc.
The scheme runs as follows:
1. Toshiba Corporation serving as a cover generally doesn’t sign official distribution contracts in Russia and the CIS. Russian nationals such as Mr. Vadim Danilov (Toshiba fake official trader) are hired by the corporation. In addition, all transactions are based on pledging Toshiba managers’ word of honor.
2. An “official” supplier – NAC Trading Ltd. - delivering appliances to Media Markt Saturn, located in Moscow, doesn’t have any procuration from Toshiba Corporation.
3. Defective appliances covered by an insurance company are sent to Russia from a warehouse Kouvola, Finland as new ones via a fake Toshiba trader.


4. Toshiba Corporation issues invoices on official blanks in which written payment requisites of third parties (Nana Europe OY) responsible for payment transfers to Toshiba Corporation and MCLOGI (Mitsubishi Corporation LT, Inc.).
5. It is strongly recommended by the Japanese companies to make all payments using off-shore banks since Toshiba prefers not to be responsible for anything if its Russian clients have any claims and complaints.
6. So, there is a bundle: Toshiba Corporation (Supplier) represented by Mr. Natsume – MCLOGI (delivering service) represented by Mr. Baba – Nana Europe OY (Toshiba “agent” in Finland supplying appliances to Russia) represented by Mr. Ogawa – NAC Trading Ltd. (Nana Europe branch in Russia responsible for financial flows in Russia), at a final stage RCAS (a private company of Mr. Baba and Mr. Natsume) located in Estonia transfers the cleaned funds from off-shore banks to Toshiba and MCLOGI.
To sum-up, it has been shown that the Japanese corporations use fraud schemes and transactions to snatch large sums and frame up hired managers and Russian big companies.
