With CES 2010 in full swing in Las Vegas, manufacturers are trying every little trick to get a bit more attention their way. One of the companies to actually manage to impress is Toshiba who are trying to position themselves higher in the home entertainment market by introduction their new Toshiba ZX900 Series CELL TVs and announcing that they should be available in the US, later this year.

A groundbreaking piece of technology that Toshiba says will “power the future of home entertainment”, the new ZX900 Series packs the CELL Broadband Engine that is supposedly 143 times faster (processing power that is) than a regular TV. It also brings the company’s ClearScan 480Hz frame rate technology, delivers an astounding 9,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio and an 1,000 cd/m2 brightness.

On top of these all, the new Toshiba ZX900 CELL TV comes with a 1TB hard drive, WiFi 802.11n, Wireless HD and an ethernet port along with HDMI connectivity.

“Creating a TV around the CELL Engine has removed previous limitations and allowed Toshiba to create an ultra-premium TV that is also an easy to use home entertainment server,” said Scott Ramirez, VP TV Marketing for Toshiba America Consumer Products. “By combining the CELL Engine with the new KIRA2 LED panel technology, Toshiba engineers have developed all-new levels of stunning performance and comprehensive functionality. CELL TV provides more brightness, more contrast, more detail, more 3D, more robust connectivity, and more fun than anything we have ever created. CELL TV is the new gold standard.”

No word regarding price or specific availability, but better think of living without a kidney if you want to bring one to your living room. This ain’t come in cheap!
