Sony is spending $203.5 million into scaling OLED production technology up to medium and large panels.In case you're not quite sure what that means, their 27-inch OLED is about as thick as two credit cards stacked together. And if you're still lost then let's talk about what an OLED television really is. OLED is an organic light-emitting diode. Information week reported back in October, "OLED screens have brighter pictures, higher contrast, and better color than seen on today's LCD and plasma screens, analysts say. The reason is the technology uses an organic material that emits light, rather than depending on a backlight like other HDTV technologies."
Sounds good to me man, but also sounds like it's going to cost a pretty penny. Still, Sony thinks this will be the next big thing, but due to the cost of these sets it probably won't be a big thing for another 20 years.
