The persistant rumor / possibly previously stated fact is that they will release in 2008 for what similar sized plasmas cost currently. That means about $4,000 - $5,000. The problem will of course be that at current rates, by 2008 you will probably be able to get a 55" plasma for closer to $2,000 (a total guess on my part).
I still want one, and I will hold my breath until they come out. I hope my 27" tv makes it.
The last thing that was heard about SED before this was that they were delaying the 2007 release in order to find better manufacturing processes to bring the price down. The way that was read was that they were more expensive than they should be and they need to fix that before they are released.
So bangin contrast ratio, response time, and brightness (450 is pretty high isn't it??), is there any other statistic / feature that we know that we can compare it to lcd / plasma?? How's color saturation, pixel size (for smaller tv and monitors)....oh and display life...that's all I can think of.
ps wtb real rememberable passwords.
