Does anyone know about the high end Sony LCD's?

I think you will find that Sony has given up making all CRT's, not just 
Artisans, and it gave up making the small cheap ones first.

From what I read, there were only four manufacturers of CRT tubes in the 
world - Sony, Mitsubishi, NEC, and Hitachi. All of these have I think 
discontinued or drastically reduced production of crt tubes. Apple are 
apparently not supplying crt monitors any more.

I think the bottom end has gone first, not the top end.

CRTs can be made very cheaply, and so they will probably continue to be
made and sold in some markets for years to come. As flat panels
improve, however, the high-end of the CRT market will go away. Sony has
already abandoned the Artisan (which I think a bit premature, but there
you have it).
