I've posted some information about new LightBoost strobe-backlight computer monitors in the LCD Displays Forum:
LCD Displays Forum -- Zero Motion Blur LCD's have arrived
There is also an excellent YouTube high speed video showing how the LightBoost strobe backlight bypasses pixel persistence as the motion blur barrier. The screen is kept totally dark during pixel persistence, and the backlight is strobed after all pixel transitions are complete (3D panels compatible with glasses panels made this behaviour possible, and benefits 2D gaming even if you don't like 3D). The backlight flash can even be shorter than the pixel persistence, and you no longer sample-and-hold. The LCD motion blur barrier is shattered with these monitors! Also, at 120Hz, the strobe backlight does not flicker to most people, unlike a 60Hz or even 75Hz CRT. These monitors also flickers less than plasma. And you can still disable the strobe backlight, whenever you want.
There are also many reports on the Internet forums, including esreality, HardForum, Overclockers, etc. Hopefully this technology arrives in more LCD displays, including in the home theater.

In addition, it's still pretty obvious in your video that blur is taking place. Previous numbers are still ghosted beyond the strobe point. It was not complicated to hit Pause and see a nice negative ghost of a zero floating around the succeeding 1.
