Sharp's new LCD shows three videos at once

sharp triple lcd

First Sharp came out with two-way LCD screens that showed different images depending on what angle you viewed it, and now they've upped the ante by releasing a triple directional viewing LCD. Yes, now you can see different things on the same screen depending on if you're looking from left, right, or center. The idea is that you can use this for an in-dash display in a car and let the driver see the GPS navigation, the kids in the back can watch Hostel, and the passenger can play the PS2. I can't imagine it working all that well as a regular TV, as the angle has to be pretty precise if you don't want to see an amalgam of two things at once. I'm gonna hold out for the quad directional LCD, but this is nice too, I guess.
