Laser TV is worth a mention, as it could be a very strong force in the display world. The demo at CES 2008 got rave reviews and there are rumors Mitsubishi is working to trim the current cabinet size for all you "size queens" out there. I'm not convinced OLED will ever be affordable with Kodak and others fighting over patent rights, and I believe the technology behind laser tv creates a superior picture.

Laser TV will become its own category of TV, much like LCD and plasma. Laser engines will be the preferred light source in cell phones and tons of other microdisplay products, because nothing can achieve the brightness and efficiency of pure laser light.

Absolutely amazing pictures. If it looks as good in person and the price is competitive with other HDTV sets, laser will become the new standard.

This model appears to be fairly slim, with a lower center of gravity than most RPTV's. While it's not OLED thin, I'll take the amazing picture quality, superior brightness, longevity and energy efficiency of Laser TV. The cost will reportedly be very competitive too. OLED is better suited for smaller televisions in the range of 27-inch and below. Anything larger is too cost prohibitive and the longevity really must really be called into question. Some reports place the lifespan of an OLED TV at 5000 hours or less, with unsettling news that oxygenation will deteriorate those glowing organic critters.

Have you ever heard good things take time? I think as more players hop aboard the laser light source express, we'll start to see things take off. Look for China to start incorporating laser powered cell phone screens in the very near future and television screens to follow shortly thereafter.

Laser TV is still in its infancy, it has not even been released yet, so anything said right now is pure speculation. However, if the technology turns out to be cheaper to produce than plasma and LCD and features a better picture, laser-powered tvs could very well be the next generation of television. SED TV is impressive, but it is strictly aimed at the premium market ($10,000+) and has too many limitations (fixed resolution, size restrictions, etc.) to be considered the next standard in television.
