Meh, stream was 30Hz- if I would have thought of it in advance I would have worked something up to test the OLED using the same video feed, but alas, was watching the game. Colors were stupidly better of course, but the low framerate was working against it for sports- not a screen limitation- damn feed was junk.

Gawd I hate marketing departments sometimes. Most people won't see a huge difference between LCD and LCD TVs. The main reason why they won't see much of a difference is because LCD doesn't have any advantages over LCD.
CCFL vs LED- those are the two technologies we are actually comparing- and their sole job is just providing light. I hated it when I saw them start to market 'LED' as I knew it would just confuse the masses. Every LED TV is LCD- they just use a different type of backlight.

Really.......? You saw them side by side and couldn't see much of a difference.....? In all seriousness, on a 50" display I can tell them apart at 50'- not an exaggeration or a joke, local Best Buy from when you walk in the door to where they have them set up I can spot the OLEDs easily(I could probably do 75', not sure if I could 100').
