Toshiba’s 55-inch 4K glasses-free 3DTV ships in the US early this year, can we borrow $10k?
It’s not a big surprise after launching in Germany and Japan, but Toshiba PR has confirmed to us and CNET that the company’s 3,840×2,160 resolution autostereoscopic 3DTV will make its US debut in the first quarter of 2012, matching the “end of fiscal year” prediction we’d heard previously . There’s no details on pricetag or model #, but given its $10,000~ sticker price overseas, we’d start shaking out those couch cushions now. The LCD maintains its QuadHD resolution when displaying 2D content, however switching into 3D mode drops the resolution to 720p

Sony’s Kaz Hirai to step up as president as early as April
Nikkei is reporting that Sony will be promoting current Executive Deputy President Kazuo “Kaz” Hirai to president as soon as April, while Howard Stringer is expected to remain chairman and CEO of the company. As you may recall, Sony started its search for a new president as far back as November 2010, and with Kaz’s two promotions last year (to Executive Deputy President in April and to Sony Computer Entertainment Chairman in September ), it isn’t surprising that he’s the chosen one to pick up some of Sir Howard’s work. It’ll be a while before we see the consequences of this promotion, and anything can happen between now and the board meeting as early as next month to seal the deal; but here’s hoping that under Kaz, Sony will go easy on all these new memory card formats while it further unifies its various groups within the corporation
