CES 2009: LG Shows Off Broadband and Wireless HDTV Lines

Lglh85 More LG news, this time from their home entertainment division.  The LH85 Wireless HDTV line ranges from 47" to 55", and uses a separate media box to stream full, uncompressed 1080p signals up to 30 feet away from the screen.  While this won't keep you from having to whip out a drill to wall-mount the television, it does eliminate the need to run cables inside of the wall to create a clean look.  Other key features include LG's TrueMotion 120Hz technology for a smoother viewing experience, 24p Real Cinema, and a USB 2.0 port for access to music and photos.

LG's other new television is the LH50 Broadband HDTV with Netcast Entertainment Access.  Available in 42" to 47" sizes, these are the first LG LCDs with Ethernet connectivity.   They offer direct access to Netflix Instant Streaming, Yahoo! Widgets, Youtube videos, Flickr photos, and can stream music and photos from other PCs on the network.  Like the LH85, TrueMotion 120Hz technology, 24p Real Cinema, and a USB port are included.  Pricing and availability have yet to be determined for either line.
