OLED, or organic light emitting diode, TVs are finally shipping next month. I have heard about them for a few years, but none have been commercially available. I recall watching a plug for these where the display was reolled up & put away -a flexible TV?? I doubt LG is going that far, but you can preorder yours today, from Korea, for a mere 11 million won, or about $10k. 55in on the diagonal, 4mm (.16in) on the depth. Yes, less than a quarter of an inch thick. Supposed to be extremely vibrant color, and the press release says infinite contrast ratio, The human eye can only see 800:1, and TV manufacturers have been boasting greater than that for years, so may as well go with infinite to be bigger & better than everybody else....

LG's PR......

How do they get speakers plus inputs on a TV that is 4mm thin? An HDMI plug is thicker than that. I saw a really small Sony OLED TV a few years ago, about 12" but an amazing picture, incredibly deep blacks and really vivid colors. Maybe in 5-7 years when my 60" plasma dies I may be able to afford one.

I own an HDDVD, bought it after BluRay won. It had the best upscaling available at the time...

There are already TVs available with 4k resolution, with HD being half of that at 1920x1080. Been available commercially for a while, theyre now hitting for the consumers....

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By strato · Posted

      I am gonna believe it wasn’t us if the 4th round pick price is accurate. We needed 225 points to get from 19 to their pick. 875 at 19 to 1100 at 14.  Our 2026 4th was valued at 56 points I think. A future 4th has less value. So that wasn’t close to enough.    It would have taken our third and our fourth. Comes within a point of even.    Now, moving to their spot in the second round we could have done but after Miami took Rodriguez why would we?

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By Zaximus · Posted

      I mean it's expected.  This is the NBA.  And they hate the Charlotte Hornets.  Flagg was also the guy "magically" given to the Mavs who lost Luca to the wildly popular Lakers.  Was always an uphill battle.  But the award is BS since it's not voted on before play-in starts. Kon probably lost because of the play-in as many people switched votes.  It was a regular season award, so this is some nonsense.  Kon also didn't have the luxury of taking 10 games off to rest up injuries like Flagg did.  If he did, he wouldn't have been nursing his back the last month.  I mean, screw him for being on an actual playoff team that matters.  Flagg took tons of shots a game, he was wildly inefficient.  Kon was a huge reason the Hornets made the play-in and turned the season around after Jan.   I think Flagg will probably be the better player long term, or at least the most impact.  But Kon should have won ROTY.
