Samsung has launched a new press release for “super-thin LED monitors” (http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20090107006252/en) that are really LCDs with LED backlight units (BLU). The company’s new P2370L is just 16.5mm thick and uses white LED instead of cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL) illumination. Compared to CCLF units, LED BLUs consume 30% less energy, are constructed without mercury, […]
