I will completley avoid any LCD garbage as long as I can....what a waste....and as for LED LCD, what a farce.]]>May 9th 2009 5:24PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/
does anybody actually think that these TVs are going to be AFFORDABLE in a year or two?]]>May 9th 2009 12:17PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 9th 2009 12:18PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 9th 2009 12:38PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 9th 2009 12:54PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/
Also, next year? I have my doubts about that but we'll see. Personally on all I've read is that they are probably at least 2-3 years away from a real consumer production line of large (40+) OLED TV's.

These are the future though and it does look good. Once OLED hits the mainstream say goodby to LCD and Plasma, not because they are bad technologies, OLED is just better AND much cheaper to manufacture. That means larger profit margins.]]>May 9th 2009 1:03PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 9th 2009 1:16PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 9th 2009 2:14PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/
Time will tell. But I'm definitely rooting for OLED.]]>May 9th 2009 3:03PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 9th 2009 3:04PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 9th 2009 3:22PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 9th 2009 3:34PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/
As for what's next, like others have said here, I've got at least 6 or 7 years before I'll need anything else. Though, depending on how it ages, this Kuro may be for life.

Me? I LCD is getting on a bit ( only 720p and broken HDMI socket ) so I am actually thinking of going over to plasma. The new V10 Panny's are amazing, but hoping I can afford to pick up a 5090 Kuro. ]]>May 10th 2009 5:49AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/]]>May 9th 2009 7:49PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 9th 2009 9:54PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/
Trying my best to hold out for an OLED.

There's nothing wrong with my Sony CRT, it just doesn't do Blu-ray justice as it's not large enough.]]>May 9th 2009 10:29PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 10th 2009 2:35AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 10th 2009 7:56AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/
OLED doesn't have viewing angle issues as far as I'm aware.

Can someone definitively clarify this issue?]]>May 10th 2009 10:35AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 10th 2009 1:40PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/
I really liked the Pioneer Kuro plasma panels (RIP), but I was quite pleased to get a 1080p front projector for $1350. Sure, the black levels aren't as good with an LCD front projector as with a plasma display, but there's something good to be said for a >100" screen for less than half the price of a 60" Pioneer plasma.

Before purchasing that overpriced, under-performing LDC panel with the 12,000K color temperature, take a good look at what the best front projectors can offer. Sure, you need to replace the bulb every two years or so, but a big part of watching an epic movie is having a high quality image fill a large amount of your field of view. I wish I'd gone with front projection years ago, but today's projectors offer an amazing bang for the buck. ]]>May 23rd 2009 11:02AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/
I want non-headache-inducing 3D HDTV, now!

I'm going to be disappointed if the next generation of game consoles aren't capable of this.]]>May 10th 2009 11:03PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 11th 2009 12:58AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 11th 2009 6:25PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/If I decide to go bigger, then projector.
That's for the media room though. For the living room, bedroom, etc, I'll just stick with the cheapest lcd available for the appropriate size (37" I find is perfect for HDTV in the living room)]]>May 11th 2009 9:14PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 12th 2009 12:16AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 12th 2009 3:32PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/05/09/poll-waiting-for-new-display-tech-or-more-of-the-same/May 18th 2009 10:42AM
