Philips' groundbreaking <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2009/01/15/philips-introduces-ultra-widescreen-cinema-21-9-lcd-tv/">Cinema 21:9 HDTV</a> looked so curious when it launched a fortnight ago that we actually questioned its authenticity. Clearly, this beauty is for real. <em>Pocket-lint</em> was lucky enough to be on-hand for its unveiling in London, and it hosted up a nice video showing off the 56-inch beast in action. The black bars you've grown used to detesting were indeed gone, and while Philips wouldn't dole out any hard specifications, we are told that it boasts five HDMI sockets, a Spring release date and an estimated £3,000 ($4,276) price tag. Vid's after the break, per usual.<p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/29/philips-56-inch-cinema-21-9-hdtv-gets-showcased-on-video/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Philips' 56-inch Cinema 21:9 HDTV gets showcased on video</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/displays/" rel="tag">Displays</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/hdtv/" rel="tag">HDTV</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/homeentertainment/" rel="tag">Home Entertainment</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/29/philips-56-inch-cinema-21-9-hdtv-gets-showcased-on-video/">Philips' 56-inch Cinema 21:9 HDTV gets showcased on video</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Thu, 29 Jan 2009 16:35:00 EST.
