I know, the black point is still an issue with LCD and their backlights.
There are up-and-coming technologies that promise to fix that, and I am sure
they will in short enough order. For example, read about the development of
Quantum Dot Nanocrystal Displays (QD-LEDs):
<http://www.technologyreview.com/read_article.aspx?id=16830&ch=nanotech>
In particular, read the sentence that says:
"And there's another benefit to not having a backlight, according to
Vladimir Bulovic, an expert at MIT in OLED displays. Because in LCDs the
dark pixels don't block light perfectly, Bulovic says, the "black" pixels on
LCDs are really just dark grey. With quantum dots, on the other hand, black
pixels emit no light. "What makes the picture crisp and really jump out at
you is that the black is really, really dark," he says."
Still, I think that the black point "problem" is not as great as many make
it out to be, even at the current stage of the game.
