From two different Canon SED TV articles:
Canon Anelva Corp., a provider of manufacturing equipment for semiconductors and display panels, plans to boost production capacity at its Fuji factory, Yamanashi Prefecture, by 80% over the next three years to get ready to make equipment for SED TVdisplay panels based on surface conduction electron emitter display (SED) technology, according to the Nikkei Business Daily. A fourth building at the Canon subsidiary’s Fuji facility for cutting and welding steel and aluminum parts will be online by August; cleanroom and other facility expansions will bring the total investment to about 2 billion yen (US $16.9 million).
Also from the same publication regarding the Nano “problem”: (more…)

Now comes FED TV Reviews. I’ve started another blog on FED and OLED TV. SED TV may have a bright future ahead of it, but there’s a lot going on with these other display technologies that I’d like to cover. Thanks for checking it out.

Not much happening in the SED TV world lately. Canon is still waiting for the ruling in the Nano-Proprietary case. That is expected later this month according to Canon President President Tsuneji Uchida. Canon also announced that it plans to appeal that decision so it’s obvious that they’re not as optimistic as they once were .
However, Toshiba hasn’t been just sitting around sulking. After dropping SED TV like a hot potato, they’ve announced plans to ship a 30″ OLED TV in 2009. This is far in advance of their original plan of 2015. It will be interesting to see who actually comes out first with a new display technology TV. By that I mean the day you or I can walk into a store and take one home (barring anything like an obscene price tag). Canon or someone else with SED? Or Toshiba or Sony with OLED. We’ll see.
Stand by for the next exciting installment of the Nano vs. Canon story.
