Unlike, the current crop of LED TVs and computer screens, no backlight is necessary. That drops power usage dramatically which laptop users will appreciate since they'll get longer battery operating times.
yes, that is a posibuility, as of now, lifespan of oled, isn,t as long as led. but i,m sure it will be worked out, also oled have advantage in manufacturing, it can be flexible, imagine a strip of oled, rolled out where normaly crown molding goes, no more light fixtures, just light itself, cool.
