Sharp To Release High Contrast LCD For Mobile Devices

"As our mobile devices skew from email, voice, and web surfin' to include more multimedia -- think live television and video on demand -- nobody (big emphasis on "nobody") is going to get into live TV on fuzzy, blurry, low res screens. To save us from future misery, Sharp has announced a QVGA 2.2 inch LCD with a 2000:1 contrast ratio, a 176 degree viewing angle, and an 8ms response time. The company expects to ship samples for One-Seg mobile phones (portable Aquos?) this fall, followed by a rollout into its other mobile handsets and cameras shortly thereafter."I'm not sure if this is news to all of the Windows Mobile Standard users that visit our site. Since the release of the HTC Tornado/Faraday line of handsets, we have been blessed with nothing but sharp, colorful, shiny and beautiful screens. I remember the day I received my Cingular 2125. My jaw almost hit the floor as I was not expecting the screen to be some vibrant! If Sharp can create a screen that can recapture that astonishment, I'm all for it, but I will not hold my breath waiting for it to come along. :)
