Dr. Augustine Fou's Online Scrapbook: Samsung's 23-inch OLED TV coming in 2010, others following suit

Given just how long we've been looking at prototype OLED panels at trade shows (and trade shows alone), we're understandably skeptical about a few new claims regarding availability. For whatever it's worth, MegaWhat.tv has reported that the display will actually be on store shelves in 2010 (yeah, that's next year), bringing with it a 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio, DVI / HDMI inputs and a total depth of just 1.6 centimeters. Furthermore, it's said to suck down 40 percent less energy compared to an equivalent LCD, but you can rest assured that you'll pay for that luxury up front. In related news, Smarthouse is suggesting that senior Panasonic executives have said that it is currently "researching" HD OLED TV and should have one on the market within two years. Not to be a Debbie Downer or anything, but we'll wait until we see progress at CES 2010 before getting too hopeful.
