Thin is in!
I’m really starting to sound like a Sony fanboy lately, aren’t I? Seriously though, this is cool.
Now I’m not going to complain about the thickness of my LCD TV. I mean its probably about 5cm thick - but check this thing out:
Sony’s new XEL-1 OLED TV (which was on display at CEATEC, the Japanese consumer electronics show).
This thing is 3mm thick (That’s 3MM not CM!). And an impressive 1 million:1 contrast ratio.
They’re not cheap as you’d expect - almost two grand for an 11″ model - a long way off a good 40″ TV and small even for a PC/Lappy monitor - but the technology is there. Won’t be long before we start buying our televisions off a roll at the local electronics shop, cut to length!
