[edit] Problems

This new article needs the following fixes:

  • Title case (only first word should be capitalized)
  • Header case (same)
  • References (wikipedia is never a suitable reference; it is not a source)
  • Advantages/disadvantages lists are often subjective; to be suitable in wikipedia they must be from a reliable published source.

[edit] OLED

Can someone add OLED technology to this article? Thanks -Halo 16:45, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Sure, point me at a good source and I'll write it up. Dicklyon 20:31, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
Cheers. I've found a couple - [1], [2] and [3]. Hope that helps -Halo 20:56, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
Only the third one mentions large-screen applications of OLEDs, and just says a few companies have made prototypes. Is that enough to be worth mentioning here, or should we hold off and regard it as vapor-ware? Opinions? Dicklyon 21:07, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

power? shouldn't electricity use be in the advantages/disadvantages part? i searching for diffrence in power use now but it is hard to find

LCoS is another technology that needs to be added. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_crystal_on_silicon

[edit] Update to reflect current situation

Re: "These technologies are quickly displacing cathode ray tubes (CRT) in the television space", I would contend that in mid-2007, CRT displays have all but disappeared from retail stores in most countries. Should the page be updated? Juux 00:03, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

I work at a retail store in Australia and currently we still sell a reasonable amount of CRT televisions. In fact, that is all that is on display. I agree that alternate technologies are being adopted now more than ever, but I do not agree that the CRT is dead, nor will it be for a while yet, especially when people want a cheap TV where a CRT's bulk is not an issue. --Greg Lockwood 20:12, 17 October 2007 (EST) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.239.238.178 (talk)

[edit] Power consumption?

An obvious improvement to the article would be something about the power requirements of the different technologies. I can't find appropriate like-for-like comparisons on the web, but I guess that the editors who've brought the page to its current quality are most likely to know the score here.

[edit] Possible Contradiction in LCD Section

Section 3.1.1 and Section 3.1.2 seem to contradict each other with the following lines:

From Section 3.1.1:

Does not suffer from glare in bright rooms

From Section 3.1.2:

Susceptible to reflection glare in bright rooms

Either the incorrect item should be removed, or the wording of one or both should be changed to avoid this apparent contradiction. --Greg Lockwood, 20:19, 17 October 2007 (EST)

The current references are links to other Wikipedia articles - and going by the dates in the article, have been since March 2007! I'm surprised they have lasted in the article for this long - Wikipedia articles are not appropriate as references. -- Chuq (talk) 11:47, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Laser Technology

At CES 2008, Mitsubishi showed off some prototype laser TVs. Mitsubishi was tight with the details at CES, but is there any more information?
