New Revolution in Television

LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) TV is today's television for the masses, because it's cheap to produce, and does not require the advanced technology in semiconductor production usually used in CPU production.
LCD monitor, LCD TV, Cellphone display, Digital Camera display, Laptop display, even Ipod uses LCD for it's display.
But that will change.

As the OLED(Organic Light Emitting Diode) production technology matures, the price for production will slowly down to the level of LCD's, and it will become mainstream.

Materials in an OLED display emit light when an electrical current is applied. Because of their luminescent nature, OLED displays don't require a backlight, consume less power and can result in thinner screens than LCDs, which are currently favored in the flat-panel industry.

They also free from the viewing angle restriction problem of LCD panels.
