by sgwizzy January 9, 2008 6:23 AM PST: I think it?s great that Sony is pushing out new tech.... it will help drive down the cost for LCD & Plasma even more!

In 2006 I bought a 1080i 32" Samsung LCD for $2000... now I can get a 46"+ 1080p for almost the same price!!!

We'll never grow if we don't keep innovating! * Someday this could become the standard!

(I personally will be happy with a 50"+ 1080p LCD/Plasma to go with my HDTV & PS3!); Like this Reply to this comment

by lee_jor January 9, 2008 8:42 AM PST: I had a chance to see the small OLED Tv''s in November at a Sony show in Honolulu. Whlle a beautiful display, it won't really be practical for home TV use until it can be made into a larger screen size at a price that , at least comes close to, that of existing large screens (plasma). I can see the evolution to be much the same as LCD displays, laptops and small displays first, then onto bigger things. It's just that it won't take as long as it did LCDs to "mature".; Like this Reply to this comment

Five years from now you will have 60" OLED,s mounted in a picture frame that cost 3000.00 with the electronics hidden in a closet somewhere.; Like this Reply to this comment

by CES2008 January 11, 2008 8:54 PM PST: After seeing this TV everything else seems blurry. Spent 10 minutes or so watching this TV at CES and now I am tainted. The best LCDs and Plasmas look blurry and washed out. Can't wait for a 60inch OLED!!!; Like this Reply to this comment


by Wes#1 January 14, 2008 6:13 AM PST: Sony showed this SAME 11-inch OLED screen a year ago. Not impressed. After a year, it remains a tiny, outrageously expensive toy with a very short screen life compared to any other technology out there. R&D would be better spent on laser tech.; Like this Reply to this comment
