Well, they;'re listed in most of the catalogues, sure. But in terms of
consumer devices, they are not commonly used. I've seen perhaps 2 or 3
things tht used them.
I think that might be a US/UK thing. They are all over the place in
I am suprised, given that most consumer devices come from companies that
sell worldwide, adn wil lre-use modules/designs wherever psosible.
Sonsumre devices here often have VF displays (which are often blue-green,
althoguth I have seen one (on a Philips unit?_) that was almost the same
colour as a green LED, and could easily be confused with it [1])) Red LED
displays are common too, as are LCDs backlit in various ways.

have the service manaul. No way is it an LED.
