From Wikipedia:
2160p is the shorthand name for the next step and the future of HDTV video modes. It has a resolution of 3840x2160. The number 2160 stands for 2160 lines of horizontal display resolution, while the letter p stands for progressive scan or non-interlaced. In a progressive image the lines of resolution of the image go from the top of the screen to the bottom. 2160p is also called “Quad HDTV” since it displays four times the number of pixels of the highest HDTV standard resolution, 1080p. Quad Full High Definition (QFHD) is the next step in high-resolution display technology, and won’t start shipping until 2015. The only step higher in television technology is Ultra High Definition Video.
Future Vision by Erwin Van Lun on this article
We’re making the world more and more real. This type of screen will break though with game consoles. That we can watch a passive movie (even if it is 3D HDTV) is a nice bonus. With an extra we can even watch ‘old-fashioned’ television, but for new devices this will be less and less emphasized. The fact that this device doesn’t have a tuner already shows that. Eventually we’ll hand such screens on the wall and we’ll have the feeling that there’s a hole in that shows us a different, usually nonexistent, space.
