ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of computing, consumer electronics and communications solutions, today strengthened the company's commitment to green computing by announcing that all of the company's PC display products will feature LED technology by early 2011. This is to offer its customers significant energy cost savings and improved performance and contrast from any ViewSonic solution.
"Consumers are rapidly transitioning to LED display products because they allow for lower energy costs while delivering brilliant picture quality," said Jeff Volpe, vice president and general manager, ViewSonic Americas. "ViewSonic is leading the way towards a greener, more cost efficient future by delivering an array of green LED products for our customers to choose from."
Today's announcement comes just a few months after the company's May unveiling of the VX2250wm-LED, a 22" (21.5" vis.) LED monitor, which solidified the company's leadership position in LED technology. ViewSonic will continue to announce innovative, energy-efficient display products that use LED lighting in the coming months, including 3D LED displays.
ViewSonic remains committed to commercial partners who have standardized on specific CCFL displays, and will continue to produce those until the demand for them subsides.

So Viewsonic, LED-only models starting next year? Give us a LED-backlit, non-TN, 120Hz screen with DisplayPort already!
Similar goes to LED technology. It's all great and i like it, but the whole marketing buzz around it is just plain annoying. I'm selling multimedia equipment and i can tell you how many ppl daily want to strictly have LED backlit LCD TV and nothing else. But they are not willing to pay 100-150 EUR extra for it compared to CCFL TV's. It's easy to be "green" if you have the money.
Otherwise you buy what you can for the money. Even if it's not all that green...
They are all LCDs by the way. There is no such thing as LCD vs LED. It's the backlighting, Fluorescent vs LED. I have never driven one but I have heard rave reviews from everyone I know that has. I've been told it is an all around great car (in addition to being efficient). I didn't really like the way they looked at first but they have grown on me.
