I don’t know about you, but I’m proud to show off my 42-inch HDTV in my living room. It’s a nice focal point, and I think it says “I like gaming on a big screen”. That’s perfect for me, but what about people that want a classier look for their living room? Hiding away a decent-sized screen is no easy task, that is unless you opt to go with this new bookshelf from Pottery Barn.

I kid you not, this thing is called the “Stuff-Your-Stuff Theater Set”. Man, I’d love to be the guy that got to think up crazy names like that for a living. Anyway, this bookshelf hides away a 66” x 58.5” projector screen, which you can use to watch your movies or play games on. Of course style always comes at a price. This time it’s a salty $1,299. You’re in luck though, it used to be $1,999.

There’s a reason Samsung is putting these gorgeous AMOLED displays on their latest touchscreen phones like Samsung Omnia HD or UltraTouch.

It’s so that you’ll could watch the latest  movies on them and give Samsung a cut for the service. What service is that?

Well, downloadable movie store, of course.

Today Samsung has announced that it is launching Samsung Movies service – a dedicated movie store powered by Acetrax that will allow compatible Samsung handset, PC and laptop owners to download the movies and TV shows over the Net.

I’m not sure whether your laptop or desktop has to come from Samsung as well. I hope not, and some software from Samsung pr Acetrax will do the trick, but you never know with these things.

The services initially rolls out in U.K. and Germany and will feature 500 titles from Warner Bros.,  Paramount, Universal and Momentum pictures. Dark Knight, Ironman, Gossip Girl, E.R. and Friends among them.

Later this year Samsung Movies should come to other major European markets, adding 500 more titles by the end of March and 1000 more by the end of June.

The movies and TV shows are available from £2.49 a pop for 24 hrs rental or £4.99 to own. You can find Samsung Movies at www.samsungmovies.com
