HP promises blacker blacks and whiter whites — though TFoT quotes one source who notes that if they deliver this, it will be due to the back-lighting and not to the number of bits/pixel. No word on the size of the displays that will actually be delivered, or on the price.

Analogue-all-the-way displays (IOW, a CRT) have always been capable of 10, 12, 15, or, for that matter, any arbitrary number of bits per channel per pixel.

So, yet again, LCDs are trying to match what a good tube has been capable of since 1987.
