Sony releases the O-LED TV

[skinnyfat]

This technology has been much talked about lately and is finally here (well not SA just yet )

1,000,000:1 Contrast ratio and 100% colour reproduction, oh and the actual display is only 3 - 4 mm thick  Can't wait for this to hit our shores

i knew i should have waited!

do they say anything about resolution on those screens? and size? i remember reading somewhere that they will be pretty small compared to what you can get in plasma.

3mm thick YES 3mm  I think 28" is biggest ATM but they WILL get bigger as the tehcnology is developed further.

Resolution is currently 1080p so no prob there

Looks great, but with still high prices of decent sized LCD and Plasma TV's can our market even consider O-LED TV. Further with our history of poor broadcast quality it will be a waste to invest in O-LEO.

Heh heh yeah, that remains to be seen. I'm curious to see what DSTV's HD broadcast is going to be like

Probably gonna be a nice rez, but surely well se lots of artifacting as we do now. I am excited to see what it gonna be like, but i am not expecting much.

imo, even at 576 should be quite nice quality, even on hd tv's. It wont be as sharp as a hd format. but the quality should be good. This is the problem with DSTV, everything is blocky, and lots of channels are very soft. I have found MNET to be one of the best channels. If all the dstv channels could look like mnet, and had widescreen support, I would certainly be a happy man!
