  Why Toshiba Dropped OLED TV

By Branko Miletic | Monday | 17/03/2008

Investigation by engineers of the Sony 11” OLED offering has revealed that power is still a major issue and could well affect the roll-out of any future OLED screened as governments world-wide move to bring in rating systems for all TV technology including Plasma, LCD, DLP and OLED.

Earlier this year at the CES, Sony rolled out their new 11" OLED TV model claiming that power consumption would not be an issue.

However a report by Tech-On, a division of Nikkei Business Publications has published a report stating that power consumption remains a challenge to OEM's.

The report stated that Sony said from the start that "reducing power consumption would be the next development challenge, said Yoshito Shiraishi, general manager in the E Products & Business Development Department of the TV Business Group at Sony. One of the reasons why Toshiba Corp of Japan delayed release of its 30-inch class OLED TV originally slated for 2009 is also thought to have been high power consumption".
