I'm tempted to start calling SED TVs the year's top vaporware. First they left us hanging at CEDIA and then just as things started to look promising, comes news (via a dear John letter sent to the press) that says there won't be any SED panels for us to fawn over at next year's CES. Why the cruelty, Toshiba?

I'd planned to wait for SED but broke down and bought a Sony WEGA XBR2 LCD in November, and now I'm *really* glad I did...
I said this before but I think the technology is patented by a company in Austin, Texas. Unless they sign a license agreement, not going to be able to sell.
"the year's top vaporware" is accurate, just so long as you don't limit "the year" to just one year. LCDs backlit with LEDs will dominate the high-end market in 2007/8, and SEDs will quietly go away.
DAMN DAMN DAMN. I want my SED!
