Lately, you have probably seen ads for 4KTV’s. 4K TV’s will be the hottest electronics gifts this holiday season but you may not really know what they are and how they differ from an HD or flat screen TV. Here is the info you need to decide if YOU need a new 4KTV to improve YOUR TV viewing experience.
First, let me explain what they are (and are not). These TVs use Ultra HD – ultra high definition (UHD) technology for a cleaner, sharper picture than any of the current HDTVs on the market (or in your livingroom).

More service providers, retailers and utilities are getting into providing control to homes around the country. So it makes sense that part of the new offering would include energy management.
Parks Associates says that such offerings will be a big boost to the market, which will see more than $180 million in revenue by 2015. As the revenue grows, so will the number of companies willing to offer these types of services. Parks says that the end result will see 60 percent of homes with some type of networked energy management offering by 2022.

Accenture study predicts huge decreases in sales of home computers, massive growth in spending on 3D, and an increasing role of tablets in the home.
A new survey predicts there will be a big upheaval in home electronics in 2011.
The Accenture study shows consumer purchase rates for personal computers and mobile phones (excluding smart phones) will decline by 39 percent and 56 percent this year compared with last year, respectively.
By contrast, buying rates of 3D TVs are expected to rise 500 percent, tablet computers 160 percent, ebook readers 133 percent and smart phones 26 percent.
As consumer electronics companies consider ways to increase demand for 3D TVs, price emerged as the biggest lever for driving greater interest in 3D. According to the survey, 57 percent of respondents would be more inclined to buy a 3D TV if the price were within their budget. Finding this price point was more significant among respondents under 24 years old (64 percent) than respondents who were older (50 percent). Other factors respondents said would make them more inclined to buy a 3D TV included having greater availability of 3D content and not having to wear 3D glasses.
