Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) technology has a huge benefit in that it does not require a backlight like LCD, which means a very thin panel can be produced. It also produces fast moving images very well and its power consumption is even lower than LCD, which is already considered to be a low power consuming technology.
OLED displays are already used in digital cameras, cellphones and other devices with relatively small panels. Sony Corp. also has plans for OLED TVs, saying that it will start selling the displays in 2007.
