ChadTower:

Has anyone seen these in person yet? 

Beretta:
those are actually only "backlit" by led, they're still lcd.

ya led back lit screens usually are more evenly lighted but not always.  :dunno
ChadTower:

Heh, I was wondering why the "new ones" weren't $1500.   ;D

LED backlight is more ECO-fancy talk, than very usefull. They use white LED's made of blue leds with yellow phosphors 99% of the time. They are mostly space-savers, not energysavers or image improvers. And defenitely not suitable for very nice colour gamuts. CCFL is still the best backlight for mainstream LCD's. They are available in AdobeRGB/NTSC gamut, high brightness and even lit. Top of the line LED, the 1500$ stuff, is using RGB backlight LED's. These RGB LED's have even wider gamuts, but they need special calibration tools, as they age not as even as CCFL. Hence the high price of these RGB backlit screens.

Are you talking about LCDs backlit with LEDs or Organic LED?
