At $26,000 for a 11" screen, it wont be economical for a very, very long time.

Oh I see. But still. $2500 for a 11" screen isnt economical.
It must have been the 20+" that was $26,000. I know I read it somewhere.

thats likely what people said about plasmas when they first launched though Kakashi... everyone thinks its cool but its not worth the price tag for many people... but that kind of buzz with little sales allows the company to make a small amount of the units to meet the small demand while expanding and improving the manufacturing process to make it more affordable

Personally I dont like plasmas.

But seriously, how many people are going to buy a $2,500 11" tv? Maybe that guy who has a $6,000,000 HT setup, or Bill Gates. But not your average rich person. Or tech freak. I see your point though.

yes saw the 11" laser HDTV back on january 7 on G4 for the CES. think I remamber it was only 11 millimeters thick. do a google image search.

OLED is better? Life span of these panels isn't that great and they have dificulty producing larger TV's. OLED isn't going to be affordable or interesting for a very, very long time! Those OLED panels have their inputs in a special box which is mounted by a ridiculously looking design stand, it really looks like s***

Yay someone agrees with me!

Blu-Jawa · 06-25-2008, 07:56 AM

Does a Blu-Ray Film look any better on a Laser TV than it does on an HDTV LCD?

and if Laser Sets do look better they will have to be way cheaper than today's LCD's IMHO before I save up to get one.

Yes they definitely will.

nhaase · 06-25-2008, 12:22 PM

OLED has the form factor advantage, but they both have the ability to have very deep blacks, as they just don't shine any light where there shouldn't be any. Laser DLP TVs will be cheaper and bigger for a while.

I can't wait to see this tech in a projector.

very true... but i would imagine that when they make them in larger sizes they will be put in a bit more traditional of a housing... still something very thin but with room for all inputs on the back... so not as thin as they are now... i can just see it being a more successful tech than the laser TV.
