Samsung's new 40-inch OLED HDTV



Akihabara News has some great pictures of Samsung's latest new technology for high definition TV: OLED. What is that? It's a display that uses organic light-emitting elements instead of using a crystal to bend light (the technology used in LCDs) or ionizing gas to create light (as in plasma TVs). Many people are excited about this because OLED displays can be very bright, very thin (this one is less than an inch deep), and very power efficient. The Samsung display is the largest OLED announced to date.
