Samsung's 40-inch 1080p LCD TV panel -- just 0.39-inches thin
With Sharp, Hitachi, and LG.Philips all announcing ultra-thin LCDs we were beginning to wonder, where's Samsung with their world's first / biggest / thinnest boasting? No more. Meet the 10-mm (0.39-inch) thin, 40-inch LED-backlit, Full HD LCD TV panel which covers 92% of the NTSC color gamut while consuming less than 90 watts of power. That profile easily bests the crazy thin measurements we've already seen. At the moment, however, no price or production run details are available. That could change on Wednesday when the panel goes on display at FPD International in Japan.

That is amazing, soon enough every tv will be even thinner than this and then we will have our float screens lol

I'll take 5/8" thick with very low heat output so that I can inset it flush with my drywall.

I was thinking velcro. That's thinner than the Sony 27" OLED prototypes, which I believe are 14 mm deep. I have the thinnest slider phone on the market (samsung SGH-D900) and it's 13 mm thick! This 40" LCD is thinner than my ultra thin phone? I wouldn't even install this on an articulating mount for fear that the client would break it while pointing it towards the kitchen.
