Might be getting cheaper? Frankly, it's effectively unobtanium at the moment. Work on commercially available first. If Panasonic thinks there's a market for a $100k plasma, then I'd think that there might be a high end market for SED too, if it's all that it's been hyped up to be. The technologies that we can buy get better all the time, how much can they slip on the tech treadmill such that what we have at the time will be as good as SED was promised to be, and is actually for sale?

I thought that SED was supposed to be buildable for cheap, if they said that knowing it needs carbon nanotubes, then they didn't know what they were talking about.

I was thinking the same thing. I remember them saying that it would be fairly cheap to get an SED TV, then they forgot about that once they actually started to state the cost of them. I also remember when they first started making carbon nanotubes and the maker of them was saying they could be used to make a 46" HDTV for under $400. Some reason I don't see that happening anytime soon.
