ViewSonic announced all of its PC LCD displays will feature a LED backlight by early 2011:
ViewSonic® Corp., a leading global provider of computing, consumer electronics and communications solutions, today strengthened the company’s commitment to green computing by announcing that all of the company’s PC display products will feature LED technology by early 2011. This is to offer its customers significant energy cost savings and improved performance and contrast from any ViewSonic solution.

“Consumers are rapidly transitioning to LED display products because they allow for lower energy costs while delivering brilliant picture quality,” said Jeff Volpe, vice president and general manager, ViewSonic. “ViewSonic is leading the way towards a greener, more cost efficient future by delivering an array of green LED products for our customers to choose from.”

Today’s announcement comes just a few months after the company’s May unveiling of the VX2250wm-LED, a 22” (21.5” vis.) LED monitor, which solidified the company’s leadership position in LED technology. ViewSonic will continue to announce innovative, energy-efficient display products that use LED lighting in the coming months, including 3D LED displays.

ViewSonic remains committed to commercial partners who have standardized on specific CCFL displays, and will continue to produce those until the demand for them subsides.
