Very nice, a higher contrast ratio than SED even has claimed to reach.

DLP(R) Products Continue Leadership in 1080p HDTV with the Introduction of a Slim LED HDTV Featuring Greater Than 100,000 to 1 Contrast Ratio

 Slim DLP HDTVs, Solid-State Illumination and New Imaging Innovations Take
                     Center Stage at the DLP CES Booth

    LAS VEGAS, Jan. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- DLP(R) products from Texas
Instruments (TI) (NYSE: TXN) are demonstrating innovation leadership by
showing the first HDTV with hang-on-the-wall slim design featuring
solid-state LED illumination and full-HD 1080p resolution. This DLP HDTV
demonstrates the flexibility and performance of DLP technology using
advanced components to create an incredible high definition image on the
screen. This new product, along with other DLP HDTV innovations is on
display at the 2007 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) (Central
Hall - Booth 8204).
    This first-of-a-kind product concept is enabled by a new .65" 1080p DLP
chipset that is optimized to drive solid-state LED arrays to drastically
increase contrast performance beyond 100,000 to 1. New 2007 products from
Samsung based on this new chipset will also be on display.
    The 10-fold contrast improvement provides for a better viewing
experience in almost any ambient room lighting situation. Additionally, LED
illumination increases the color saturation to nearly 140% of the NTSC TV
standard and delivers a color refresh rate of up to 48x the standard TV
frame rate when combined with the inherent speed of DLP technology. LED
illumination also provides "Instant On/Off" functionality and replaces a
conventional lamp with a long-lasting (lifetime) light source.
    Slim DLP products provide the biggest picture in the smallest space by
utilizing an ultra-thin bezel that maximizes the viewable screen while also
being the thinnest freestanding display at their screen size. At
approximately half the weight of plasma TVs, these innovative DLP HDTVs can
be placed almost anywhere within the home, including easy shelf mounting
without requiring expensive heavy duty wall brackets. Samsung's 2007 DLP
line-up includes additional slim DLP HDTV offerings and other manufactures
are also expected to introduce slim models in 2007.
    "We are thrilled to continue the DLP tradition of HDTV leadership by
introducing new innovations to enhance image quality even further," said
Adam Kunzman, business manager, DLP HDTV Products, Texas Instruments. "By
utilizing advanced illumination such as LED, DLP is capable of exceeding
100,000 to 1 contrast ratio, while displaying a wider color gamut with full
1080p resolution. The new slim and lightweight cabinet offers a stylish
design plus additional flexibility in HDTV placement."
    According to The NPD Group, DLP was the number one selling 1080p HDTV
technology through November 2006 as well as the leading micro display
projection technology with 43% of the market share. DLP HDTVs are available
from leading manufacturers, including Mitsubishi, NuVision, Panasonic,
Philips, RCA, Samsung, Toshiba and more. CES attendees can view the new
slim designs and LED-based DLP HDTVs as well as other exciting DLP image
display products at the DLP Products booth.
    Additional DLP innovations, including the integration of a 3D display
mode, will be demonstrated by multiple DLP HDTV customers at CES. Due to
the speed of the DLP technology, true stereoscopic high definition 3D is
possible for an immersive gaming experience. TI is working with select
customers to integrate 3D imaging in future DLP HDTV models.

The LEDs are the projection light source?

I was imagining LEDs on the screen itself. But that would be similar to the SED HD I think.
