Samsung recently exhibited a 19″ OLED TV with a panel produced by an inkjet method.  It is not full HD but has a 960 x 540 pixel panel. You can bet this will not be in stores for the holidays but it is an important step forward in OLED TV technology.

Producing larger panels efficiently and cost effectively has been a major roadblock so far in the development of consumer ready OLED TVs.  A number of companies have been working on a printing process for OLED panels but this is probably the first TV exhibited using this process.

Toshiba recently announced that they are scrapping their initial plans to mass produce OLED panels and will now concentrate on LCD instead.

“The plan is currently frozen. We’ll review the production plan again from scratch,” Toshiba mobile display spokesman Masahiro Kume told the Nikkei business daily.

$197 million was invested in a joint venture with Panasonic in 2008 to build OLED panels for mobile displays.

How this will affect any plans for Toshiba to produce an OLED TV remains unseen.

LG is showing, among tons of other fantastic new displays, its new 31″ 3D OLED TV.

“For a peek at the future of Home Entertainment, LG will be displaying its revolutionary OLED TVs at IFA, including a new 31-inch 3D model with a depth of just 0.29 cm, the slimmest of any comparable set in the world. Dispensing with back-screen lighting, OLED TVs’ pixels generate their own light to produce an entirely new level of color, clarity and depth of blacks. Pencil-thin and exceptionally light, LG’s OLED TVs are an elegant addition to practically any environment and surface, as the ceiling-mounted sets in the LG OLED zone at IFA can attest. Demonstrating the extraordinary possibilities for 3D on an OLED TV, the 31-inch 3D model seduces viewers into a world with a level of detail that is a wonder to behold. ”
