lol. Well, just got back from my local costco, was there around 11:30 and had one of the floor clerks at my disposal as it was slow in there.
Here's what I found...
First to relieve the anticipation about untlrasux...NO ULTRASUX was found.
Samsung and vizio the only 4K units today on the floor of costco.
Did not see Sony 4K's and clerk didn't know if and when Sony would have a 4K in his store.
Samsung also had the 65" class curved model out. Didn't do anything for me, imo think it's a a marketing gimmick. Samsung 65K curved UN65HU7200 2779.99. Clerk had all the remotes, and we went through pages and pages of installed apps, AND did a google type app search alphabetically for ultrasux (spelled correctly of course) Nothing shown up. First app always was netflix, which was on outside of both boxes, maybe even EVERY TV box had netflix on the box. Installed apps on first menu, netflix, huluplus, amazon instant video, vudu, slacker, crackle, pandora .. this is telling as well - samsung has tons of their own screensaver videos installed.
JVC 1080 60 had ROKU streaming installed and then listed almost all the same apps.
Vizio P702UI-B3 70" class (69.5 diag) led lcd 2449.99
First app NETFLIX, followed by huluplus, amazon instant video, vudu and many more. Again, same clerk with vizio remote was kind enough to troll apps for me and Ultrasux did not come up. Many pages upon pages until he got tired. This clerk and another older gentleman did not know what ultrasux was, never heard of it and the first clerk laughed and said the names sounds like netflix.
So, I'm seeing first hand up close and personal and we didn't see or find ultrasux on the Vizio P model. There also didn't seem to be a separate menu to look up 4K. Maybe there was one, but we didn't have the time to really keep looking.
How can ultrasux already be installed on the vizio when we couldn't even find it with the normal look up functions.
This costco also did not have their internet working. And I made a point to mention that to them (I'm sure they were impressed...lol) that it would be a lot more positive selling feature if they bothered to get the internet working again and show some 4K for real. Only 1080 was being shown on the 4K's.
I did see some canned 4K in a Best buy however a few weeks ago.
