Sony thumbs nose at Samsung, confirms OLED TVs by December

by Thomas Ricker, posted Sep 12th 2007 at 8:07AM

Surely you remember Sony's OLED TVs with an astounding 1,000,000:1 contrast? Good, then you'll also recall that Sony promised the 3-fracking-mm thin, 11-incher this year; a schedule Samsung publicly doubted. While we wish it was 27- or even 30-inches, it's still a very important step in the wide-spread, commercialization of the technology. So check it Sammy, Sony's on the road touting a December, Japan delivery to anyone who will listen. So the question is: are you?

You have a serious tit-sucking fetish problem. You can't stand Sony, although they are a big company. Go ask Bill Gates to give you some milk.

Sony is leading edge OLED for early adopters. So we can all buy 100" OLEDs wall posters in 5 years I hope.

Droolling here as well.
