Toshiba to show an OLED tablet at CES
Jan 7th
CES hasn’t started yet (two more days!) but already news is coming in. This time it is Toshiba, announcing it will show a “high brightness” OLED tablet. We do not have any official information yet, although some sites suggest it will be a 7″ tablet. This actually makes sense as we know that Samsung just added a new 7″ AMOLED product which indeed features high brightness (400 nits). read more

Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 7.7 ready for pre-orders?
Dec 7th
A few weeks ago we reported that Samsung’s Super AMOLED plus packing tablet has arrived at the FCC for testing and approval. We still do not have an official release date or price – but the Tab 7.7 (or P6800) has popped up for pre-order on Negri Electronics – for $668.50 (for the unlocked 3G 16GB version). We’re not sure if this is legit, but if so – it probably means that the first OLED tablet will be released soon… The Galaxy Tab 7.7 is the world’s first tablet with an OLED display, a 7.7″ Super AMOLED Plus panel, offering 1280×800 resolution.

Analyst: Apple and Sharp to jointly develop iPhone and iPad OLED panels within 1-2 years
Nov 22nd
Peter Misek, an analyst at Jefferies says that he believes that Apple decided to buy iPad 3, iPhone 5 and TV display panels from Sharp. At first these will be IGZO based LCDs – which will be brighter, clearer, thinner and more efficient than existing LCDs. But Misek also believes that Sharp and Apple will jointly develop OLED displays (probably IGZO based as well) within 1-2 years which will be used in future iPhone and iPad generations. OLED TV panels aren’t expected until 2015. Misek says that the two companies are working towards a new printing technology for producing these small/medium OLED panels – and that a pilot line will be in place by middle 2012 for testing purposes. Full production will be possible in 2013. The new technology, according to Misek, is a combination of inkjet printing and a daisy wheel. The daisy wheel is an impact printing technology and I’m not sure how it relates to OLEDs. read more
