Sony's Howard Stringer to show off new OLED TVs at D

The D conference is in full swing, and the next heavy hitter on deck is Sony CEO Howard Stringer, who's rumored to have a new Sony OLED display for Unkie Walt to play with. We're assuming it'll be a little bit bigger than the XEL-1, but Silicon Alley Insider says it'll come in at just .3mm thick, which is only slightly beefier than a playing card. We're guessing it'll be more like the XEL-1's 3mm, but we'll see what Howie has in store for us -- we wouldn't be opposed to hearing some more about those "slim PS3" rumors, ourselves.

I'm surprised no slim PS3 has been announced yet. Everything is there from a technical standpoint to make them right now and they would really sell like hotcakes.

I sure hope that's 3mm and not 0.3mm thick. It'd be as thin as a piece of looseleaf paper @ 0.3mm thick/thin.

I love how these displays are claimed to be 3mm thick, when they have that big ass base, big thick arm to the display, and that big thick plate attached to the back.
