When I said 3D, I meant a true projected display like in Star Wars with the Death Star. The Toshiba 3D notebook uses parallax tech with existing LCD to create the illusion of 3D.

That aint bad, but it still annoys the eyes.

OLED's are basically sprayed onto a layer. Now the R&D took alot, so the initial cost will be higher than LCD's, but the drop is already much faster than LCD's, & will be very affordable months after their release.

Notebook displays are one thing that is keeping notebooks from completely replacing many people's desktops. The brightness, viewing angle, cheap cost, refresh rate is just so much better on CRT's. Now, 8ms LCD's will become standard in the 1Q '05, & that equals to about 125hz or 125 FPS, & that is really very good for almost everyone. Once they transistion that to notebooks that will be a major turning point.

However, being able to see the display as clearly in full sunlight as in the shade, near perfect viewing angle without washout, much less power usage, & being 1/3 thinner are attributes LCD's will never have.

I am already picturing a time when desktops are replaced by notebooks, if the can erase the graphics card performance difference.

Karma in reply to your 3d statement, another company from rochester, ny recently has showed off a device that creates a real holographic image from anything that is loaded onto a computer as a special file. The display isnt too bad and I am sure it will be only a matter of time before it can display anything on a computer.

This a cool thread! There should be an emerging technology section in this forum. I had no idea this stuff was going on.

I know, OLED's really are exciting.

Here is Samsung SDI's site devoted to their OLED's:

http://www.samsungsdi.co.kr/contents...oled/oled.html

They seem to be the only producer of the Active Matrix OLED's.

Pioneer Japan and RiTdisplay Taiwan are mass-producing PMOLED outer window for mobile phones and Car Audios; other OLED manufacturers including Sony, SK (Sanyo+Kodak), Toshiba, Sharp, and LG are concentrating their efforts to develop technology and secure functions by setting 2004 as the year of industrialization/mass production.

Alot of people think that OLED's still have a short life span, which is a myth. The lifespan of the material itself draws near 10,000 hours already, and it has been developing by more than 30% every year; it is expected to achieve 40,000 hours of lifespan in year 2005 when AMOLED is regularized. The only thing that is keeping them from releasing the tech now is the lowered efficiency of the blue pixels. Blue is currently OK, but not as efficient as the red & green.

Also, Samsung has already created 15.5" dislays on a mass production level, which is why I am nervously waiting for the 15.4" Wide notebooks.

Yeah a new tech section would be cool I usually find new things every week or so maybe ill start posting different ones on here. As for OLED's pioneer has OLED displays in its cd player that plays some sick animations while movies are going on I think other car cd players have them too.

I'm with you on this one Kingderk, a "Notebook Technology" section or sub-section would be a really great thing to have. That would give n00bies a chance to figure out what to look for in a laptop and also help spread rumors of future tech. Great idea!

I'd like to take credit but RGHILL was first to mention the idea though I would be happy to show news of emerging technologies. I had thought of this idea for a while but still RGHILL deserves credit for mentioning it. On a side note I think I will post a new technology sometime soon in this forum I just gotta find something good.

A new / upcoming technology thread, or maybe even a general forum on that would certainly contain alot of info.

Alot of these threads are about new tech or upcoming tech or whatnot.
When, Who, How is going to have "X" & so on.

On second thought, that seems too generalized, unless it it divided by Sager tech, Dell tech, etc. I think that would be easier.

Just look at how huge the "upcoming Sager products thread" is. That should give you an idea of how much interest people have in that sort of thing.

BTW, speaking of upcoming tech, read my post on dual-core A64 in notebooks.
