As of this writing, the only readily available content source for 4k is the Sony PlayStation 3, and it can only display static pictures (not moving video) using the HDMI connection

As then, I wanted to spend some dough and acquire a future-enabled TV that I can enjoy for years even as new content and technology becomes available.

Until true 4k and 8k content is widely available, which is a long way off, you are better off saving your cash and getting a 1080p HD TV instead

For 4k content -- well, that's a tricky part

Sony Tech Support website says that the PKG4.001AAA released on 23Dec13 supports the October 2013 HDMI 2.0 spec and supports 3840 x 2160p at 59.94/60Hz YCbCr 4:2:0 8bit and 4096 x 2160p at 59.94/60Hz YCbCr 4:2:0 8bit, which should handle data rates necessary for 1,920 x 1080p passive 3D images at 60 fps (but I know of no available content).

Needless to say, most consumers aren't going to sit close enough to see any of extra resolution 4k offers, much less 8k.1080p 3-D Content on Passive (polarized

I’m unaware of any available content

I know of no significant available native 4K content (beyond demo disks) but my Oppo 103 will up-convert anything to 4K, as does the Sony itself.

You can still enjoy 4K content like movies but 2.0 will be needed if you want to enjoy 4K gaming in the future, currently it would be capped at 30fps

I am waiting patiently for the Sony 4k player, which I hope will be worth the 700 bucks, and I hope it will have some decent content because the announced preloaded 10 movies are (well questionable at best)

the average consumer wont understand the technicalities involved...but when your shown these demo clips which are out of this world... you expect you get the same from 4K DVDs... waste of money... rather get an O LED TV
