Re: [Avid-L2] Re: No More Sony OLED?

My scientific approach matches Terry's scientific approach. Asking
random people at NAB what they thought. I had one person who said
they were going to do it because they had clients demanding it, but he
didn't want to, because he knew it was just throwing money at
something that wouldn't last. Everyone else was also against having
3D TVs...even sports guys.
