Giz Explains: All The Tech That Make Future TVs So Gorgeous 
The Future Of TV Is Beautiful, Simple And Good 
LG's Eye-Poppin' OLED TV Is Amazingly Thin 
Samsung Flexible OLED Concept Video Shows How Kids Will Waste Time In The Future In a rather surprising post on her blog, Pixel Qi founder Mary Lou Jepsen claims the company’s next-generation transflective LCD technology will not only match the new iPad’s display in terms of resolution, but will also exceed its contrast, colour saturation, and even viewing angle. Them’s fightin’ words.
Ah, Japan, you crazy country you. As if your advertising wasn’t surreal enough already, the advent of posters that react to being kissed has taken things into a whole new league.
Big news for anyone with a big living room and bigger wallet: LG’s 55-inch OLED TV will be the first of the pack to arrive, debuting in May for $US8000.
If you suffer from the most enviable predicament of having both too much money and too much wall space, the UK’s premiere high-end retail outlet would like to speak with you — something about a 152-inch plasma TV.
Kogan’s latest TV deal has a pretty spectacular price point for a display that large, although there is one slight catch; aside from the normal Kogan issue that you can’t exactly check the quality in person, it’s also a pre-sale price (although seemingly not one subject to Liveprice upticking) for a TV that won’t ship until May 8.

Apple has exacting demands when it comes to quality control, and few things need to hit harder on quality than the retina screen on the new iPad.

Awkward.
NEC has been dabbling in ultra-thin flexible batteries for a while now, but the latest version of its ORB, or organic radical battery, measures in at a mere 0.3mm thick. Making it thin enough to be used even in a credit card.
You can go on and on about how great the flatscreen TV in your home theatre is, but I guarantee it won’t hold a candle to the image, brightness and colour quality of Dolby’s $US40,000 reference monitor.
The new iPad is here. Apple’s new tablet computer has arrived, and its ultra-sharp 2048×1536 retina display is enough to set it apart from anyone else. It’s almost like looking at a glossy magazine page.
