SED actually <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/05/25/sed-televisions-delayed-again-possibly-forever/">is not</a> the wave of the future for televisions, but <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/category/oled/">OLED</a> most probably is. At present, we've got <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/tag/XEL-1/">Sony</a>, <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/04/13/30-inch-oled-tv-from-toshiba-in-2009/">Toshiba</a>, <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/04/22/samsung-expects-affordable-medium-to-large-oled-displays-in-2009/">Samsung</a> and <a href="http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/04/24/lg-display-aiming-to-mass-produce-32-inch-oled-tvs-in-2011/">LG Display</a> (among others) all vying for your future dollars, and since competition in the HDTV space is so grand for consumers, we won't be kvetching too much about yet another entrant. <em>DigiTimes</em> has it that Matsushita (parent company of Panasonic) is looking to begin production of OLED displays "in the future." That's it. No juicy clues as to when, no inside information about panel sizes -- nothing. Just enough to tease you and leave you in a state of panic for the foreseeable future.<br /> <br /> [Via <a href="http://www.oled-display.net/panasonic-matsushita-plans-to-begin-oled-tv-production-in-the-near-future">OLED Display</a>]<h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href=http://www.digitimes.com/news/a20080422PD205.html>Read</a>*|*<a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/24/room-for-one-more-panasonic-wiggles-into-oled-tv-game/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>*|*<a href="http://www.engadget.com/forward/1176926/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>*|*<a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/24/room-for-one-more-panasonic-wiggles-into-oled-tv-game/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a>
