It seems that a lot of LED light bulbs already offer dimming and come in shapes similar to incandescent bulbs, so it will be interesting to see what makes SuperBulbs different.</p> Waiting eagerly to see what comes from this company.

I am Chris Link, Texas Instruments' business development manager for energy technologies. Although we are getting help from two directions. 1. Legislation forces incandescent light bulbs out of many markets. 2. Consumers paying more attention to lifetime cost versus the immediate dollars and cents when buying the light bulb due to the recently high energy costs and the overall tightness in speding. With the dramatic improvements in lifetime and energy consumption an LED light bulb is much cheaper than the old incandescent light.</p> <p>Join us at http://tinergy.ti.com for more on semiconductors and energy technologies.</p> Absolutely agree with you that the sticky point for LEDs replacing light bulbs will be the price.
