Sony to release a 104" OLED TV for $999

We just learned that Sony is set to announce their next-gen OLED TV, a 104" OLED TV with Full-HD, 3D TV support. The TV also supports Wi-Fi and will display the latest news from OLED-Info when turned on. The FOOL-401 (Flexible Opaque Organic-LED) model will cost $999. Sony provided us with a photo of the new TV:

Sony's OLED panel is actually transparent and flexible (it's only 0.01mm thick!) and we can expect a rollable, transparent TV from them in around April 1st next year.

We have talked to a Sony Rep that confirmed the TV. "We're really excited to announce this TV today. OLEDs are so great, we'd be fools not to sell this TV. And for such a foolish price!. There were rumors that Sony are pulling out of OLEDs, but these are just foolish suggestions".

We'll keep you updated about the official release later today!

Update: We hope you had a nice April Fool's day!
