Stan,
Please share what you mean by "OLED?"
Since you seem to be a "pockets" sorta person, perhaps you can add to
this very confusing matrix. I do so hope this is not another emotional
rant generator.
Based on my crude calcs, I am shopping a 58-6x "something" panel. Yes,
this means major $$$. So What? I spent $$$ in 1996 also; and, have
enjoyed my video/TV thus far...(well, until it went TU!) LOL!
Now, I use a Viewsonic N2635W. Yes, smaller; but, a really nice
presentation for OTA TV. And, I am still doing research.
Best,
Duncan

still waiting for OLED backlights. :-)

120 sure, but hype?
So when they stop making 120's, you'll stop buying TV's or are you just
saying don't spend ape shit money to get the 240 over the 120 if
buying new?
120Hz provided real value. Being a multiple of 24 (as in, standard 24fps
film content), it allows for nice smooth 5:5 pulldown, vs the 3:2
that
must
be performed when displaying at 60Hz. 240Hz, in contrast, is
marketing.
Any
240Hz set that looks better than a 120Hz set has nothing to do
with the
refresh frequency and is simply a result of newer/better backlight,
panel,
and/or electronics, etc.
Also note that not all 120Hz TV sets are capable of 5:5 pulldown.

Don't you mean 240Hz?

Try to get 120 HZ as well because it won't blur as much during
action
scenes.
