As for the 100K lifetime, we'll see. We were told at the service seminars that LEDs would last well beyond CCFL, but field examples told a different story.

Any filtering scheme is still subject to fade, particularly the blue because it's nearly impossible to to filter out UV light from the source, even LED lighting. Plasma, LCD TVs, LCD projectors (particularly) show evidence of yellowing as they age. The only displays that haven't shown this in my experience is the old Pioneer Kuro plasmas and any micromirror PTV with a glass color wheel.
