I LOVE this portion of the news

"..............the display generates the industry's first combination of true 30-bit color - enabling a range of 1 billion colors - in an LED-backlit LCD at a fraction of the cost of most high-end, studio-quality LCD displays.

I think the NEC Spectraview Ref 21 also has 30 bit ( 10 bit/colour) capability. This was the first LED Backlight LCD monitor, launched 2+ years ago.

But the price for this 21" is about US$5,000!

N.S.
