I hope they eventually start selling smaller TVs and computer monitors. Ultimately, they should be cheaper to make than an LCD if they can work out the manufacturing problems.

Samsung made an OLED TV that had RGB OLEDs, but it was only on the market for a short time. I'm not sure how they have aged.

So what is the projected life of the LG white OLED material... anybody here seen any data?
