lg 15 inch oled tvLG Display’s 15-inch OLED TV prototype will launch in Korea as early as December, according to Won Kim, the company’s VP of OLED sales and marketing.  According to Kim the 15-inch TV, which was first shown back in January and tipped for a 2009 launch in April, will arrive in December or January, though it’s unclear which brand will be offering it.

A global launch will follow on from Korean availability, as LG Display’s manufacturing scales up.  The company is already selling mobile-phone scale OLED panels to two unspecified brands in Korea; ironically, though, LG’s own cellphone arm have decided not to use OLED at present, citing high cost and sub-230ppi resolution as their main concerns.

LG have unveiled a 23-inch LCD monitor which, the company claims, could pave the way for low-cost 3D computing and entertainment.  The full-HD 1080p panel uses traditional time-sequential split-image technology to offer individual views of each image for each eye, which the brain combines into a 3D whole.  However, by integrating this 3D technology into the panel itself, LG can make the panel brighter and reduce the complexity in the accompanying viewing glasses.
