I saw a 4K curved OLED Tv in John Lewis and it was amazing.

Can these be connected to a PC and the resolution changed between different settings as wall as refresh?

Where can you get 4k content? Are they making blue rays now at that resolution?

I'm going to give it a couple years for the technology and standards to mature before I buy one. The prices also need to come down.

It's a long way until they're ready for the mass-production of movies on normal Blu ray discs. They first have to extend the maximum size of the discs to about 128 GB without changing there design/size.
My guess is that the most content you will be able to watch in 4K quality will be from the internet (iTunes whatever...).

Anyway, for all the other guys out there thinking about getting 4K-TV, Samsung will release pretty awesome 4K-TVs in late April which will be much cheaper than the ones you can buy at the moment..

Yeah 4k seems a little overpriced right now. I got one of the active 3d TV's as soon as they came out and hardly use it so feeling a little burnt on new TV technology still

Been waiting for the Seiki 4k to arrive in Australia. Will hookup via a blackmagic card but it probably will be obsolete in a years time because 4K is massive marketing for companies right now even though the typical consumer could not tell the difference between 720p to 4K.

Better to wait for more, higher quality content to come out before getting a 4k TV imo.

I walked past a 4K Sony (50" i think it was) TV on display a few weeks ago and honestly I couldn't see anything particularly special or amazing with the footage... I'd expect it to be sharper but as I said, couldn't tell with the demos they were using (it was a soccer match)
