Just accept what you are going to have to do is go out and buy one. Then when she doesn't understand it and gets angry, buy her what she wants. It may cost you twice as much, but at least you get your TV.

I don't get why everyone is so concerned about tv thickness. How many times do you look at your tv from the side?

1-2 times a week?]]>Feb 28th 2010 2:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/
I agree, anything less than 10 cm is fine with me.

3 mm thick is just overkill. Either make a normal TV that does not deal with the "thickness issue" at all or go all the way and make one thin enough to stick to my wall as a wallpaper.]]>Feb 28th 2010 5:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/

i cant wait for the day i can pick up an OLED TV thats about 46inches and only costs about $1500. but that seems like something that may just not happen.]]>Feb 28th 2010 2:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/
Mostly it's yield issues. A 15" panel can make one 15" TV or 25 3" Zune HD screens, the problem is most of the time only about 22 or 23 of the 3" panels are usable. Which is OK, you throw out the bad ones and sell the good ones. But if the same panel was going to be a TV the whole thing is useless.

So TVs can only be made with the perfect panels,

It's sort of like how Intel charges $1k for their extreme edition chips. ]]>Feb 28th 2010 5:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/Feb 28th 2010 2:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/Feb 28th 2010 2:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/Feb 28th 2010 3:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/Feb 28th 2010 3:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/28/lgs-15-inch-15el9500-oled-tv-sets-sail-for-europe-scheduled-to/You're telling me a fast food joint is going to pay $2,700 for a 15in OLED screen to show the news?

I'd love to have a 13.3" OLED screen in an ultraportable, but as bad as LCDs in that size class are for contrast ratio and color gamut, I really can't see spending more than $100 or so for the upgrade to OLED, and at this point it would probably cost more like $2000.

It seems like OLED is stuck in this place where it needs more market penetration for the cost to come down, but it costs so much that hardly anyone is willing to buy it.
