Hope you weren't too attached to the idea of "medium to large" sized
OLED HDTVs coming from Sony this year, according to the
Wall Street Journal's sources, the company's slipping share of TV sales mean profitability takes precedence over sweet, super slim new displays. Surprised by its inability to sell truckloads of $2,500 11-inch versions CEO Howard Stringer decided to put the project on the back burner, apparently more focused on things like
competing in Wal-Mart and implementing
cheaper LED technology for its LCDs. With
LG also on a timetable that puts us a year or more away from seeing one of these on store shelves in decent sizes, things are
up to Samsung to bring it home -- we're waiting.
