LCD Pixel Response Speed Doubled

Japanese newspaper the Nihon Kaizai Shimbun said that Mitsubishi has mastered a technology to improve the response speed of pixels on LCDs by 100 per cent or more.
It’s done this by getting rid of the afterimages on screens which known as “ghosts”, said the newspaper, and invented a proprietary system called Dual Domain Bend. It cites unnamed sources at Mitsubishi saying that this method produces a response speed of one millisecond when power is applied and five milliseconds when the lights go off and the power goes down. That, the paper said, compares to up to forty milliseconds to switch pixels on and off.

    I bet the same, AND that this technology doesn't even cost much more to build if any... meaning even more profit.

    well, they did pay people to work in labs to design the new technology, and that has to get paid for somehow. they can only charge as much as people are willing to pay, and i doubt they will charge that much more for this new stuff when it finally comes out. the lower response time lcd's today don't cost much extra above the slower ones anyways.
