ailing televisions to HD standards. Many do not realize that their friendly
broadcast over the waves is about to change. As America pushes the Hi-Def
deadline back, the Japanese are pushing forward with plans to drop their
"Hi-Vision" standard pioneered by <A  href="http://www.nhk.or.jp/english/index.html">NHK</A>, who is a Japanese broadcaster . The Hi-Vision technology was also used on the <A  href="http://www.jaxa.jp/press/2007/11/20071107_kaguya_e.html">JAXA moon mission</A>. The communications ministry is pouring 300
million yen into the NHK project to develop and launch a higher quality 33.2 million pixel broadcast
standard by 2015. Due to the ailing USD, that is 2.735 million dollars. </SPAN></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/B6D63744-1347-4615-BC48-06BF25468883/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
