The article was mediocre due to it's lacking information. No pricing information or estimated timeframe of arrival. No information about other potential uses (ie. front projectors, RPTV's etc.). At least tell us who is supporting this platform and if the costs of creating new fabs for this technology are worth it over the refinement and therefore future price reductions (no to mention technological improvements) of existing display technologies like LCD etc.
Also, the brightness of CRT monitors is blown out of the water by LCD, DLP and LCOS. The only thing that CRT is still the supreme choice for is contrast, and even then, all of the newer "flat" display technologies have advanced so far that contrast issues are almost non-existent for all but the most avid display purists. Let's not talk about screen burn in either...
