HDTVs with unbreakable gorilla glass

My dream TV should come with Wi-Fi, a Blu-ray player, and a powerful sound bar, and I doubt an armored glass panel will ever end up in my list of wants. Nevertheless, Corning is pitching its ultradurable "Gorilla Glass" for use as HDTV cover glass. This material was originally invented in 1962 and has been used in smartphones and handheld devices to protect against drop damage and scratches. Putting aside some of the rare cases of flying Nintendo Wiimotes smashing TV screens, I'm having a hard time recalling any other similar panel fatalities.

The company is expecting its first deal to be secured soon, and these tough displays may be launched as early as next year, according to Engadget HD. The million dollar question is whether you're willing to pay extra for one. Share your sentiments in the TalkBack section.

Candice Crawford & Kim Kardashian make Dallas Cowboys

Forget about the Terrell Owens and Ochocinco Cincinnati Bengals show, the Dallas Cowboys’ season is already promising to be a media circus without a single player involved.

The love lives of Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo and WR Miles Austin drew quite the buzz when their respective girlfriends Candice Crawford and Kim Kardashian were spotted at the Dallas Cowboys’ training camp Sunday.


Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told Charean Williams of the Fort Worth Star Telegram he “almost swallowed” his sandwich when he ran into Kim Kardashian having lunch with Austin and Romo.

“No, it’s good to have her here,” Jerry Jones added.

Maybe Jerry Jones heard about the comedic Kardashian “effect.”  After Lamar Odom married Khloe Kardashian he won an NBA Championship with the Los Angeles Lakers. Earlier this year, Kim Kardashian sat in the interview booth with her previous boyfriend Reggie Bush after he helped the New Orleans Saints to a Super Bowl.
