The Star Wars Saga will never have a perfect edition.

If Lucas does it, for him will be like killing the chicken of the golden eggs.

What's he gonna sell in the future if he gives to us now a reference edition with our beloved OT?

There would always be the next better format, or the next better transfer technology.  Do you really believe that blu ray is the final format?  The future will also bring features that don't exist now, such as the ability to mark sections or build your own version out of alternate takes.  Or install it on a network or integrate it with your smart phone.  If he gives us something great, we'll be in it for the next version too.  We bought the VHS, then the LD, then the DVD, then the blu ray.  It won't stop there.  Plus, *I* would buy his next special edition if he also released the OUT.  Now, I'm not buying anything.

Speak of the devil!

Just a week after Toshiba announced the UK's first TV with a 4K (3840 x 2160) pixel resolution, Sony has taken the wraps of a home cinema projector that offers the same thrills but on a much larger scale.

The VW1000ES, which made its debut at CEDIA, uses a new 4K SXRD (Silicon X-tal Reflective Display) and Sony's Iris3 technology to deliver 12.5m pixel images at sizes up to 200in.

And, while we wait for actual 4K video content to arrive, this next-gen projector is naturally au fait with Full HD and 3D, using an active shutter system and a built-in transmitter for the latter.
