$13,000 doesn't require you to be all that rich. Most cars and even some motorcycles cost more than that.

16:9 isn't a resolution, it's an aspect ratio. Working backwards from the number of LED's, this "C-Seed 201" thing seems to be a pathetic 684x383 or something like that. ...They clearly don't want to admit how low the resolution is. "Full HD Transmission" hahaha you deceiving bastards. Also, what's up with the 100,000 Hz refresh rate? Most media sources are all of 24 Hz. You could maybe get use out of a few 100 Hz, but 100,000? Did they just plug in the theoretical max of the LED's? Or the line refresh? ...Probably the linescan refresh. I highly doubt the display could handle 100,000 Hz input even if you could somehow FIND any.

It's closer to 1100 by 690, but still.

OT: The robot looks fancy. Otherwise meh.

At first I figured it must be the reasonably common 1152x648 resolution, but I did a little digging before my post; on their website's specifications, there's three LED's per pixel, one for each color. So it's really low.

If you have 680K to spend on a TV, perhaps you should rather do something about those kids being prostitutes on streets all over the world to earn tiny amounts of money, instead.

You heard it here first - don't buy a new TV, spend it on child hookers.
