They're not going to change their retail price. It'll be the same, but "better"/"different" ... that's how they'll market it.

I suspect it'll allow them to put OLEDs on the Macs.

That would be a GIGANTIC unique differentiator for the Macs. Once you see it, you won't be able to tolerate a non-OLED display. ever again.

I'm just thinking about my development environment background, Terminal, etc in pure black and off... Wow.
