SED has no image quality advantages over oled devices. The main advantage of sed was the ability to leverage existing CRT plants in production. Meaning large cheap displays.
Sed are not flat. They are like micro crts with one electron gun per pixel. They use phosphers step up transformers and glass. They are much thicker than both LCD and PDP and much heavier.
The price of a 42" lcd panel is $700 at my local best buy.
Sed would have to release this year to have a chance to compete. It is for all effect a dead technology that will under deliver compared to LCD's of the time.

The window on SED technology is closing.
