OLED is already here 🙂 look at your colour mobile screen... 😉 its just too bloody expensive to put into full large screen production at the moment lol.
i saw a thred for a samsung 5ms LCD and just wanted to throw out some info incase anyone wants it...
"Incredilbe Refresh Rates are good arnt they????"
this is abit of a scam to be honest... The LCD maufacturers do not have a set way to measure the response time of an LCD product that they make, and as such the way these measurments are made vary grately. this means that a 5ms from samsung, may well be the equiv of a 16ms from LG electronics ect ect.
its a scam because theres only so far you can go before the eyes see no further improvement. usually a good quality 16ms screen is more than enough (for example the Sharp LL-191A-B 19" TFT is measured at 16ms refresh rate but has a colour depth that far outstrips other monitors in its class with greater refresh rates.)
at the end of the day, its more of a sales gimmick aimed at the overzelous gamer rather than a useful application. These monitors cost hundreds of $$/££ the ONLY way to be sure you like it, is to aks the shop to get it out of the box and hook it up to a fast moving complex image like a game. this is what i did with 7 monitors before i chose my TFT. they want the sale so they will not mind. if your ordering online, Research it via google or forums first. do not buy blindly.
