According to LG the first units will begin shipping this month, with limited availability through the usual high-end sources slated for October. Just as we'd heard, the 84LM9600 includes LG's passive glasses Cinema 3D technology plus all the Smart TV, WiDi, dual-core L9 processor, 2.2 channel speakers and Magic Remote bells and whistles it can muster.<br />Of course, even $20k currently doesn't buy a large selection of publicly available 4K content, although LG was displaying the unit with standard 1080p content to demonstrate its "Resolution Upscaler Plus" capabilities. The 1080p video we watched was sharp and clear on the big LED backlit set, although there was a bit of glare from the lights in the room -- not atypical for demo setups that aren't exactly like most living rooms. In just a few weeks well-heeled consumers will be able to choose between this and the slightly pricier <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/05/sonys-84-inch-4k-bravia-on-sale-for-$25k/">Sony 84-inch 4K TV</a>, with more competition on the way soon. Also an option: a decently equipped 2013 Ford Focus. Check the press release after the break for all the details, we'll be checking Mark Cuban's couch cushions for spare change.<br /><br /><br /><div class="post-gallery"><h3 class="title"><b>LG 84LM9600 84-inch 4K UHDTV</b></h3><ul class="thumbs"><li class="thumb" data-count="4"> <a class="gallery-link" href="http://www.engadget.com/gallery/lg-84lm9600-84-inch-4k-uhdtv/5266532"> <img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/09/product-images84lm96006_95x95.jpg" /> </a></li><li class="thumb" data-count="4"> <a class="gallery-link" href="http://www.engadget.com/gallery/lg-84lm9600-84-inch-4k-uhdtv/5266533"> <img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/09/product-images84lm96005_95x95.jpg" /> </a></li><li class="thumb" data-count="4"> <a class="gallery-link" href="http://www.engadget.com/gallery/lg-84lm9600-84-inch-4k-uhdtv/5266534"> <img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/09/product-images84lm96003-0_95x95.jpg" /> </a></li><li class="thumb" data-count="4"> <a class="gallery-link" href="http://www.engadget.com/gallery/lg-84lm9600-84-inch-4k-uhdtv/5266535"> <img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/09/product-images84lm96001_95x95.jpg" /> </a></li><a class="more gallery-link" href="http://www.engadget.com/gallery/lg-84lm9600-84-inch-4k-uhdtv">See all photos</a></ul></div><div id="pr_box_button"></div><iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/AeMeCkyfpSg" width="100%"></iframe> <iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ZFdpliwAyso" width="100%"></iframe>
