We know it’s been burning on your mind everyday since December 6th, 2007: “What on Earth are those guys and gals over at Seiko Epson doing now that they’ve killed production of RPTVs?” At long last, we’ve located an answer. According to a prideful new release from the outfit, it has developed a new inkjet technology that will enable the “uniform deposition of organic material in the production of large-screen OLED TVs.” For what seems like years now, manufacturers have teased us with 37-inch OLED HDTVs, but they’ve skirted around questions relating to “price” and “release.” Now, the last remaining excuse seems to have been vaporized, so if we don’t see a market-ready big-screen OLED at CES 2010… well, let’s just say the knee-capping club is dying for a reason to reunite.
