hi

Ken, I was not trying to be condescending. My apologies.

The green blob is a degradation of the panels. It gets worse over time. I have seen in in many LCOS and LCD units from various manufacturers.

It is with all builds on the Sony. You are correct only on the comment that it affected only early builds (sort of), if you are saying that specific to the Gen 1 unit where it pretty much covered all the different build dates. The temperary Sony fix was to make the sets even more blue. It is less prevalent on the 2nd gen SXRDs.

On a related note...I am also seeing it on some of their front projectors.

On a non related note...i have also seen burn in on some of these rear projs.

Regards

Gregg

With respect to LCD, are you seeing degradation of LCD flat panels, rear projectors or both? I've never been much of a fan of LCD, but it's always good to keep up on what's going on.

Let me know if you're ever in the Des Moines area. Perhaps I will partake of your services.
