Samsung and LG had no OLEDs on display at SID. Why?

SID 2011 is now over - and everyone is asking - where were the OLEDs? While we've seen some new prototypes from several companies and a lot of technical papers, it was very strange that both LG and Samsung did not have any OLED displays on show. Obviously the technology is advancing quickly and both companies are pouring a lot of money into OLED production... so where were the panels?

Some speculate that because both Samsung and LG are expanding OLED production they do not want to give any details at this stage. They say it is normal for companies to keep quiet before making commercial announcements. What do you think?
