will this solve the issue of blue pixel burn in?

Unless you leave your TV on for a couple of months displaying the same image it's not a problem.

Burn in really isn't an issue unless you plan on using your tv to show plane schedules or leave it on the sky menu for days at a time.

Very nice indeed :)
Hexus: any chance you can keep us updated on news on this when it hopefully gets picked up by a monitor manufacturer?
The problem with such technology is that it sometimes falls by the wayside, so we get all excited about it and then it never commercialises.
Really hoping I might be able to look into an OLED monitor in 2017, when I look to upgrade my current rig, but OLED technology progression is practically glacial.

You're combining two potential issues with OLED in that statement.
Firstly, I believe you meant blue pixel *burn out*, since the issue with "blue" in OLED is that it has a significantly lower lifespan than red and green.
Secondly, one characteristic OLED shares with plasma (and to a somewhat lesser extent LCD) is the potential risk of burn in. However, like with plasma, this is mainly an issue when displaying the same pixel structure over a lengthy time period. TV station logos come to mind.

OLED is not suitable tech for a computer monitor. It works for phones, because they arent on for long periods at a time and works for TVs because static images are not common in TV viewing (apart from channel logos).
