My first LCD display (a first generation one) cost about that much, now I could get the same one for next to nothing. As technology grows more sophisticated and spreads to larger markets the costs will come down. Plasma and LCD were very expensive when they were first launched. In a few years OLED will be the same price as LCD is now, perhaps cheaper. Hell Cathode ray TVs were expensive when the were first launched, now we throw cathode-ray TVs away without a second thought. LCD is a good display, but we can easily do better... |
Yes but look how long it took for LCD & Plasma TVs to get where they are now. OLED TVs maybe the next great thing, and they will be cause they are nice, but reasonable prices wont be here for another 5 years. My TV has been on the market for a year and its still $2500, it hasnt dropped a dime in price in a year. And thats with the new LaserVue TVs out, and the LED LCD TVs out as well. It seems that while the technology in TVs are moving fast, the prices arent reflecting it.
