This is probably questionable, too, but oh well (quote from that thread to which I'd like to respond with a sort of quip of my own):

Similar cautions never stopped Kuro owners from plunking down a lot of cash for that product, and the vast majority of them are still pining for the next Kuro to come along. OLED appears to be their best chance for such a product.
Some have actually said the latest flagships from Samsung and Panasonic are the closest one can get to OLED PQ without plucking down $12k and instead at likely a third of the price or less. Many also managed to get the Pioneers at rather discounted prices due to the firesale when they announced their exit (along with speculation leading up to it). The main complaint I have with it is uneven wear because of the horizontal bars present during certain widescreen aspect ratios. Methinks OLED wouldn't solve this problem (but make it less noticeable during dark scenes?).
