engadget.com — It looks like the long-awaited upgrade to LED-based displays will be landing shortly. The HP Compaq 2510p 12.1-inch laptop and 2710p tablet PC will reportedly be the first two on the list to receive such treatment. The firm's duo of LED-packin' machines are scheduled to ship out in Q3 of this year.

I used to have a Compaq T1000 Tablet and I loved it. Terrible for gaming and graphics work, fabulous for web browsing, word processing and starting conversations with total strangers. I'll be looking at this one when it comes out, along with the one Dell just announced <a class="user" href="http://direct2dell.com/one2one/archive/2007/05/18/15193.aspx">http://direct2dell.com/one2one/archive/2007/05/18/15193.aspx</a> and (hopefully) Lenovo's follow-up to their X60 <a class="user" href="http://www.pc.ibm.com/us/notebooks/thinkpad/x-series/tablet/sitelet.html.">http://www.pc.ibm.com/us/notebooks/thinkpad/x-series/tablet/sitelet.html.</a>The one that supports Linux best wins.

The Toshiba R-400 already has an LED display. And the R-400 is way better looking than that ugly silver turd.

Okay, i looked on wikipedia and I looked on google, and the first thing that came up was this page. What the hell is 2710p. I'm guessing like 3500x2710 resolution or something, but could someone clarify?

Well at least it will have better battery life with a more efficient lamp. Sony will be selling OLED displays sometime this year I hear.. So maybe we will see some OLED laptops soon... We can only hope... I would imagine a large ticket price for OLED since the manufactures are set up for LCD at the moment.
