Think you're special just 'cause you own a 1080p HDTV? Toshiba wants to blow your socks off with its Cell TV, which has a max resolution of 3840x2160 (otherwise known as 4k x 2k). I know, there's absolutely no content that can take advantage of that beast, but the 55" display can upscale anything you throw its way thanks to its Cell processor (the same type of processor found inside the PS3.) It'll even upscale Internet video (not that I'd want to see those YouTube videos in Quad HD.) The TV will come with a set top box capable of recording up to six HD streams at once. It's expected to debut in Japan later this year and in the States early next year.
