Old School LG TV Puts Modern Styles to Shame

lg_retro_tv_crt_serie_1We may be waiting for the future to arrive today in the form of the Apple Tablet, but for an antidote, may we suggest this gorgeous television from LG, which is almost 180-degrees different from the Moses Tablet.

The beautifully retro Serie 1 television is best defined by what it lacks. No LCD panel (it is unashamedly CRT), no widescreen (the aspect ratio is an old-school 4:3, on a 14″ screen) and, paradoxically, no analog tuner (this baby is digital-only). It *does* at least have a remote control, and a pair of optional, clip on rabbit-ears, and it also features a switch that lets you flip from color to black and white to sepia, for true old-time goodness.

IT’s a Korea-only product right now, but if it came West, I’d snap one up. At only $220, it’d make a perfect (and much bigger) replacement for my tiny, analog only TV set, soon to show its last moving picture.
