You could buy 4 50" monitors and the computer power to sync them up as a single display for much less.

But you would have a + in the middle unless u open them and stick them together as much as u can. But still 101k, i think is just too much, if u have 101k u have the money to ur own cinema at home, top of the line projector, sound system and furniture. this is for companies, advertising purposes, but for homes ..not so sure.. unless u are rich.. even thought Sharp 108inch tv? Mercedez Sl500? Sharp 108inch tv? Mercedez Sl500? Sharp 108inch tv? Mercedez Sl500? Sharp 108inch tv? Mercedez Sl500? ...

I'm actually surprised. I thought it was going to more accessible to average consumers. The purpose of it makes more sense now.

Yeah, I'll bet you can buy a "real" movie theater projector for $100K!!! (Although, think most theaters still using film projectors.)
But projectors only work in dark rooms... You can't "project" black (or dark colors) onto a white or silver screen!

That is just ridiculous. I wouldn' even pay that much it was atleast 4320p. Not to mention it can't be hung-up on the wall, and has only 2 15W speakers. In a few years or less we will have way better TV's than that for a MUCH lower price, say between 2k-5k price range. With that money would you rather buy a Audi A8, or a TV that will be useless in a few years?

$101,000? Pocket change! ;-)
On a more serious note, as others have said you could almost have a top-of-the-line (or very near it) room with a projector for that money.
Speaking of cars for $101,000, mike.a did you mean an S8 - $93,300 or, for just a hair more, an R8 - $109,000?
If it was my money I'd buy a Viper and keep the change for insurance and gas.

Not needed!
Anyone who wants bigger image would get a 1080p Projector $2500. There you go, saved ur self $98.500.
For these who say "but it wont work outside", i get say that no TV looks good on a shine day out side. and i'm sure you would just be watching movies and play games on that anyway, so why you need to go outside? Sorry you can't watch ur news on a 108" is just wrong... LOL

Here's an idea: Get a 50" Kuro and just sit half as far back from the display as you were going to with the 100+K rip-off set...Presto, same resolution and "perceived" size.
