LG goes retro with CRT-based Classic TV

LG travelled back in time to bring us the LG Serie 1 Classic television, their latest creation that radiates a retro design.  Yup, it packs good ‘ol CRT technology (that’s cathode ray tubefor you younglings) with a traditional 4:3 aspect ratio in a 14 inch diagonal screen.  It even comes complete with rabbit-ear antennae, knobs for channel surfing and volume, and chrome legs!  LG pulled out all the stops–you have the option to switch between full color, black & white and sepia tone modes.  Due to obvious technical reasons the Serie 1 does include a modern digital tuner, composite video ports, and a wireless remote.  It’s available for purchase in Korea for about $215 in black and red renditions.  Additional images below.
