So, there's good news and bad news, and we tend to prefer starting with the former. According to Akihabara News, Mitsubishi (http://hd.engadget.com/tag/mitsubishi) has whipped up an upscaling technology to end all upscaling technologies -- one that takes vanilla 1080p material to 4K x 2K (http://hd.engadget.com/tag/4kx2k) without breaking a sweat. Now, for the less-than-awesome tidbit. For whatever reason, the tech is not yet compatible with Blu-ray content, and moreover, you're still nowhere close to being able to afford a 4K television (http://hd.engadget.com/2009/10/06/sony-trimaster-quad-hd-lcd-multiplies-the-resolution-and-the-pr/) or projector (http://hd.engadget.com/2009/09/10/jvc-puts-4k-dla-rs4000-projector-in-your-home-for-just-175-000/). Here's hoping this breakthrough makes 'em a wee bit more feasible for the layman, though.Mitsubishi's upconverting technology takes 1080p to 4K x 2K, you to cloud nine (http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/19/mitsubishis-upconverting-technology-takes-1080p-to-4k-x-2k-you/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Fri, 19 Feb 2010 05:12:00 EST.
