Will the LED backlight cure major problems of the current LCD technology wave ? That may possibly include the panel uniformity, backlight bleed, exposed colour gamut, real 0 black point, picture depth.
For example, AS-IPS panel is imho best panel in exsistence, and that includes viewing angles, latency, colour accuracy and general picture balance ... just add the LED backlight, slightly more optimised overdrive and/or OptiClear! What more could you wish for ?
LED backlight will cure all panel uniformity problems, introduce true 0 black point, can reach over 100% of the consistent colour gamut, it's mercury free, it requires low DC voltage, instant operation (no warming up), vibration and mechanical shock safe, low operating temperatures ... etc. Who needs all OLED/SED pulp fiction. Look ... OLED monitors are supposed to be released this year, but postponed seriously for the future *unknown date* ?! Canon and Toshiba SED panels are postponed for the late 2008 and they are only reserved for the TV sector. Why bother!
Interestingly enough, NEC already pioneered the LED backlight LCD monitor:

It's designed for the "static" and professional/colour critical applications, but look at that price
I think that at the beginning, LED backlight LCD monitors will be tagged with the price premium, that's for sure.
On the other hand, AUO is announcing the LED backlight based LCD TV panels, based on the Advanced MVA technology:

... and they are showing off their new LCD technology this week at the FPD Taiwan 2006.
Also, other LCD panel manufactures are announcing the LED backlight support:

It's a bit strange that LCD monitors are not mentioned in those announcements and presentations. Hopefully, they will not forget our ... LCD monitors sector
What do you think ?
