    Here it is, AV geeks: an RGBY LED panel. Yup, that means there is now a yellow pixel involved which is sure to improve, well, videos of sunflowers and Big Bird.

    Sharp also updated the bezel to create an overall fresh look with a translucent bottom bar and rounded corners.

Sharp is targeting a Spring 2010 launch with prices starting out $3299 for the smallest one and $6499 for the gigantic 68-inch.
