Samsung displayed their impressive OLED TV at CES again this year. Though the prototype is incredibly impressive, with a razor thin display and unbelievably rich colors and blacks, there is still no information about shipment or price.
Along with being thin and beautiful, Samsung’s OLED television offers a 1.35GHz quad-core A15 processor, voice control, and Smart Hub software. Smart Hub is a revolutionary interface for Samsung’s new line of Smart TVs. You are able to browse what’s on TV, including movies, shows and sports, as well as content from streaming services like Netflix and your personal videos and photos.
As well as the OLED TV Samsung also unveiled a new, streamlined Smart Hub menu, as seen above. With the first day of CES complete and some exciting things coming out, we can’t wait to see the rest this trade show will have to offer! Have you been following CES?

Occasionally, rental properties or homeowners associations (HOAs) tell our customers they’re “not allowed†to have a satellite antenna. This is not always the case.
In fact, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) created the Over-the-Air Reception Devices (OTARD) Rule to regulate and protect your choice of TV providers.
In most instances, you are allowed to have a DISH antenna provided you meet the following criteria:
If you feel that you meet these minimum requirements or if you have questions regarding the OTARD Rule, contact the FCC at 1-888-CALL-FCC (225-5322) or visit the FCC’s page about the OTARD Rule. The FCC can determine whether or not your right to choose a TV provider is being unlawfully denied and help you resolve the issue.
