Sony, Panasonic tying up in advanced TV displays
The rumor that Japanese electronic giants Panasonic and Sony would team up on OLED HDTV technology is confirmed, as they've just issued a press release indicating plans to establish mass production in 2013. The two have worked separately on different aspects of the technology, and now they'll put their collective heads together on the core and printing technologies necessary to produce the panels. Still, while they will be BFFs behind the scenes don't expect any crazy cross-branding of releases, as the release notes each company plans to "develop and commercialize its own competitive, high-performance, next-generation OLED televisions and large-sized displays." Can this combination help them catch up to individual might of Korean counterparts Samsung and LG? Those two will individually put super-skinny, ultra high contrast ratio OLED HDTVs on store shelves this year, but Panasonic / Sony can get prices down from the $10k~ range faster we're sure consumers will be able to overlook their tardiness to market.
