LG has recently announced two new series of LCD HDTVs, expanding its already diverse LCD offerings with a new 240Hz LCD line, SL80 series, and a new LED-backlit LCD line, SL90 series. Both lines have a striking completely flat bezel, and the SL80 series measures just 1.8 inches thick at its thinnest point. The SL90 series will be of particular interest to videophiles, considering that LG's other LED-backlit LCDs, the LH90 series, scored well in our recent review. Full details haven't been released yet for the SL90 series, but here are the specs we have so far:
