Philips has unveiled their new Quad Full Autostereoscopic 3D HDTV. That’s right, 3D. The 56-inch television is able to display video at a resolution four times that of a regular TV, and can produce 3D images that you can see WITHOUT wearing those silly red and blue glasses. The only drawback? There’s currently not very much content being made for the televisions, which could be a bit of an issue, especially when you’re paying a reported $25k for your set. [via Wired]

The Phillips Pronto TSU 9600 touchscreen control panel is a wi-fi enabled remote control that lets you direct everything from one central location–your home theater system, music libraries, cable TV, even your lighting if you have an automation system installed. This is a must-own for anybody who ever considered (or actually purchased) theater-style seating for a home screening room; the cinephile’s lust for movie theater-like control of the environment is definitley fufilled with the Pronto.
