I think the big thing will be LG’s 55” AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode) display TV, which will likely cost about US$8,000 when it hits retailers later this year. It’s supposed to have better “blacks” than any plasma TV, have a “refresh rate” that makes plasma’s 500 Hz seem slow, and have power consumption that makes LED side-lit LCD panels seem like power hogs in comparison. If LG can offer a 3840x2160 version within two years, they have a huge winner right there!
Do they have 4 track prerecorded tapes for my Akai reel to reel machine ?
I was at CES last year and Samsung showed some fantastic OMLED’s you could bend, etc. One thing they showed us on film (well, video) was a 19 inch screen you could roll out like today’s front projection screens. Imagine 120 inches where the screen’s the TV.
Won’t happen for a while, but the picture quality on those screens blew my socks off. Wonder if LG’s is true AMOLED..

I heard about that too. They predict the price should drop in half by the end of 2013.
