 One interesting trend in HDTVs at CES is the new "slim bezel," like the ones found in Toshiba's new REGZA XF550 line. The bezel refers to the frame around the glass of the HDTV; ideally, HDTVs strive to have as small a plastic chassis as possible. Toshiba is promoting the XF550 as "Super Narrow Bezel," barely a 1-inch thick from the end of the TV to the glass. A slim bezel might not sound like a feature that will make you run out and buy an HDTV, but it actually does look amazing when you compare it to thicker models side by side. The Toshiba REGZA XF550 line is comprised of 40-inch ($2000), 46-inch ($2500) and 52-inch ($3000) models. Release: April 2008. Price: $2000.
