Plasma and LCD Killer

Toshiba is going to launch SED technology TVs later this year that is supposedly going to blow away plasma and LCD in terms of video quality. The main issue however with any new technology is pricing. No word there.

Toshiba is planning to release this new line of unbelievably accurate flat-panel sets in late 2006. The technology is called “Surface-conduction Electron-emitter Display” (yes, that's a mouthful) or SED for short. The electronics maker showcased prototype SED sets at CES and every IGN editor on-hand was in agreement: nothing else compares.
