It worked very well with the PS3 though, same with the Xbox. Many people bought HDTV's for HD consoles.

I don't doubt that.  I just think it might be too soon to upgrade again even if this would be two years out.  Not to mention 3D didn't exaxtly light the world on fire either.  It's like: "upgrade to HD", then "upgrade to HD + 3D", and now "upgrade to super HD".  I just think it might be a bit much.  And Sony's TV business hasn't been doing too well and I don't think this will catch on as fast as they would need it to.

Oh I agree, I and many other people will be sticking with 1080p for a long time. It doesn't mean that SONY shouldn't include 4k resolution support in the PS4, it's just an optional upgrade for the home cinema enthusiasts. Making the PS4 support a 4k resolution output will not cost SONY a great deal of money, it was likely expected because of how powerful next gen consoles will be.
