Sony just officially introduced a brand new papercut thin TV screens. The TV is not yet on the market but Sony will start producing them before the year's end.
The difference between these OLED (organic light-emitting diode) TVs and the flat screen TVs we know today is that this one is a lot thinner. Sony's first OLED TV will be 11" across and only 3 millimeters thick! This will be followed by a 27" TV that is less than a centimeter in depth.
Now we can really start to see TV screens installed everywhere.
