Sharp Unveils the Solar Powered Television
Sharp Electronics has introduced a new LCD TV which is powered by solar panels. Sharp claims that the 26-inch screen consumes only a quarter of a energy compared with a similar size CRT.
The new LCD is actually a very low power consumption LCD screen, that is paired with a new thin solar panel from the company. Sharp suggest that this can be used in remote areas which are off the grid. But these poor people may have better things to worry about then seeing American Idol at night.
No word on pricing, availability or production yet.
