Don’t Buy that LCD-TV…Yet!

April 12, 2007 by Brian  

Sony announced it’s newest display products this summer will start using OLED. What exactly is OLED? Well, LED stands for “light emitting device (or diode)”. The O in OLED is “organic” (but in the sense that organic things are made from carbon molecules, not that expensive section at Shaws).

So what this means to you is since OLED doesn’t need a backlight (like the currenly popular standard LED), it can be way skinner than Nicole Richie. Take a look:

Update: Toshiba announced it is planning OLEDs in 2009.

Update:  Check out this amazing video of this stuff!
