+While the 1960s and 1970s saw a number of smaller and more portable television sets hit the marketplace((http://www.visions4.net/journal/time-line/)), it was not until 1982 that people were able to hold and watch TV in the palms of their hands. The Sony Watchman™, powered by a mere set of four AA batteries, weighed just shy of one pound and seven ounces. Its two-inch beveled glass screen was, by all accounts, the very first flat screen television((http://www.japaninc.net/top-10-japanese-inventions/)).
+Featured in the November 1982 issue of Popular Science magazine,3 the Watchman, as the article depicted, stood out among its “Go-Anywhere TV” competitors. With a sleek aluminum casing and compact design at only one and a quarter inches thick, it fit easily into its owners’ pockets.
+In addition to the black and white LCD screen, the Watchman’s front face included a narrow yet elongated speaker. The upper right corner housed the channel dial with its corresponding tuner display directly to the right of the screen. The back of the device featured a fold-out stand that allowed it to rest atop a horizontal surface like a desk or nightstand. The television’s power button, located on the upper right-hand side, included a setting for sound in order to help conserve battery life if the device was not plugged in.

+<blockquote>Other “small” TVs would love to have a body like that, but their picture tubes are just too chubby.
+On the other hand, Sony’s new flat display picture tube is as flat as a pancake (literally), making Watchman extremely easy to hold when you’re watching it. And extremely easy to slip into your pocket when you’re not.
+Watch what you want, whenever you want to watch it, because Watchman is the first really personal TV.</blockquote>

+<blockquote>Netflix became a household name beginning in 1997 when it launched its DVD rental mail-in service.31 As the company grew and technology matured, Netflix began to turn some of its attention online by kicking off a rollout of “instant viewing” for a subset of its video content library beginning in 2007(([[http://www.bloomberg.com/bw/stories/2007-01-16/netflix-never-mind-the-mailboxbusinessweek-business-news-stock-market-and-financial-advice|Netflix: Never Mind the Mailbox]])).</blockquote>
