Displays blazing fast response times, wide viewing angles, exceptional
color reproduction, outstanding contrast levels, and high brightness.
The nature of its technology lends itself to extremely thin and
lightweight designs along with the ability to use it in a variety of
different applications!

The P3 does have a dual boot Windows CE and Android function. More details at CES-2010.
Plasma,
and LCD televisions will soon be a thing of the past, imagine a
television screen as thin as a piece of paper that weighs no more than
a few ounces. Or, so flexible it could be worn around your wrist and is
virtually indestructible.
The primary benefit of OLED
displays over traditional LCDs is that OLEDs do not require a backlight
to function, and consume less power during operation. OLED displays are
expected to be more efficiently manufactured than LCDs and plasma
displays.
The AMOLED technology have full layers of
cathode, organic molecules and anode, the anode layer overlays a thin
film transistor (TFT) array that forms a matrix. The TFT array itself
is the circuitry that determines which pixels get turned on to form an
picture.
The fledgling technology of making ultra-thin displays
using organic light-emitting diodes (OLED) is starting to bear fruit
finally with Sony, Samsung SDI and other makers introducing new
applications.
Sony says that it is going to sell 11-inch oled tvs
for the first time in the world this year. Korean firms such as Samsung
Electronics, Samsung SDI, LG Electronics, LG.Philips LCD and Neoview
Kolon are also investing in the technology, which should replace the
current LCD and plasma screens panels in the long term, becoming the norm for digital displays.
Samsung
Electronics Digital Media President Park Jong-woo said that organic
displays can be a breakthrough in its TV business, as the competition
for creating bigger screens now does not carry much meaning to
consumers.
Sony OLED-TV
Sony is demonstrating two slim TVs that incorporate OLED (organic light-emitting diode) technology at CES 2007 in Las Vegas .
The
11- and 27-inch TVs are about 3mm and less than 10mm thin,
respectively, according to a company press release. The 27-inch model
features a full high-definition (HD) panel while the 11-inch TV is
designed with a wide-SVGA panel.
The resolution of the
27-inch OLED TV is 1920x1080, the contast ratio is greater than
1,000,000:1, brightness : all white 200cd/m2, peak greater than
600cd/m2. Colors - 10 bit RGB.
11" - The resolution is 1024x600, the other technical data like the 27-inch OLED
Sony sees the chance to bring OLED Tv on the market in 2007.

OLED
technology now is mainly used in display applications such as TVs and
handset products and lighting applications, which have had less
attention in the market before.
Although OLEDs used in
lighting applications are not expected to become popular in the next
few years and will initially target niche markets, the technology has
several advantages over that of conventional lighting. First among the
advantages is slimness. The thickness of OLED panels for lighting
applications could reach less than 1mm. Such a characteristic could
allow OLED lighting placed directly on ceilings rather than hang from
them. In addition, flexibility is another advantage, which may allow OLED lighting to be used when designing for spaces with limited conditions.
OLEDs
are a flat light source, emitting diffuse light from a potentially
large active area. They do not need light distribution elements, thus
reducing the cost for the whole lighting panel. In contrast, LEDs as
main competitor are a point source technology
which needs light distribution elements to achieve flat panel lighting.
Additionally OLEDs use low peak brightness on large area, LEDs provide
very high brightness on small area. Due to this fact, LEDs are optimal
for point-like light sources, OLEDs are suitable for large area flat
light sources. Using large-area OLED with higher efficiency will allow
complete lighting solutions based on OLED technology. OLED will
substitute existing lighting technologies, but will mainly generate new
applications, owing to the unique properties of large-area diffuse
light generating with adjustable color. Starting in the near future,
OLED lighting will boost the OLED fabrication worldwide. The market
research company IDTechEx expects already for 2011 a billion dollar
market.

white lighting panel concept for use in commercial or residential
lighting.
amoled means Active Matrix Organic light emitting diode
Active
matrix (AM) OLED displays stack cathode, organic, and anode layers on
top of another layer - or substrate - that contains circuitry. The
pixels are defined by the deposition of the organic material in a
continuous, discrete "dot" pattern. Each pixel is activated directly: A
corresponding circuit delivers voltage to the cathode and anode
materials, stimulating the middle organic layer. AM OLED pixels turn on
and off more than three times faster than the speed of conventional
motion picture film - making these displays ideal for fluid,
full-motion video.
Fast Response
More vivid and dynamic image quality is realized in moving pictures.

ZDNET about the Nokia N85 with a 2.6 inch 240×320 OLED display with support for up to 16 million colors:
The OLED display looks fantastic. The colors are bright and evenly lit
with no side or backlighting. The display is viewable for virtually any
angle and looks great in the dark and in direct sunlight.
