How do they expect to survive if they don't produce one of these by the Holiday season this year?  Let the Doomsaying begin.

Yet the beat of technology marches on...We are obsolete before we know it...May you be in heaven before the devil knows your dead.

Have you seen the prices - makes B&O seem cheap!

Just curious 355F, do you ever have anything positive to say about B and O? At least your 10 most recent posts all deal with your personal opinion that the prices are too high and negative comments about B and O?

Even on a Sunday it is 'tres impossible' as the Finns would say:

B&O may as well pack it in.  Even the mighty, if flawed, OLED juggernaut will surely fall under the withering fire of constant new technological development.  Thank whatever gods you bow to that they didn't listen ot the screaming masses and jump on SED technology just a few short years ago.

 Surely some will argue that they may as well simply leap-frog the entire process and offer us the next ground breaking BeoVisions in the customer's choice of Oil, Pastels or Watercolors.  Then at least one may choose precisely what one views, and at whatever resolution one cares to attempt!

B&O buys panels, and back in the day bought Tubes.

When the technology is ready B&O should certainly invest in building TV's that take advantage of the best technology available, but not until it is ready top be incorporated into a desirable, durable product. If I have read the articles correctly Sony will probably  produce panels as well as finished TV's when their technologies are ready, and they are a long way from ready now, so there is no cause for alarm, especially as technology is proceeding way ahead of any actual  requirement for it in terms of what customers are actually watching.
