Not that I approve of their move, I've heard of the problems of CFLs (how do
you dispose of so much mercury safetly without it getting into the
environment?), but LEDs are well on their way to being the market
competition and they will still be forced to compete in the very near
future. Though honestly I don't see how they will be able to compete once
LEDs go mainstream. Don't throw away your shades too soon.
