  • Sony To Launch Ultra-Thin OLED Flat Panels



    TOKYO, — Sony Corp. said it will launch an ultra-thin flat TV in December, the world's first television based on organic light-emitting diode (OLED) technology into an $82 billion market dominated by LCD and plasma models.
    This is the big hope... to make up for disappointing PlayStation 3 sales, which have suffered due to the Nintendo Wii.

    nice to see they are finally doing OLED, but an 11" tv is not going to be terribly attractive at $1740, no matter what technology it is, I think

      Samsung has already demo'ed a 21" OLED.

      OLED will be big what with contrast ratios of 1 million:1 and sich, but Sony isn't the one with the patents. Those are Kodak, Seiko-Epson and others.

        I hope they have reasonable life expentancy before the colour goes off, blue in particular

        It would not be nice buying a monitor at premium price and have go funky a year or so later.

          Looking at all the dead LEDs in the "hi-tech" LED traffic lights that have popped up the past two years, anything LED based will have to have a killer warranty for me to bite initially.

          LCD has a proven track record. DLP needs standardization of the light source and designs making user replacement possible.
