HP and ASU Demo Prototype Flexible Display

Engadget is reporting that HP and Arizona State University's cooperation has given birth to a new prototype flexible display. Using "self-aligned imprint lithography" (SAIL) the prototype device is easy to manufacture, environmentally friendly, and incredibly resilient. Unfortunately it is still a prototype, so don't expect to see this tech hit the streets for quite a while yet.

It sure would be nice to have a scroll-mobile

So that we who are old enough to have coded in punch cards can read our netphone screens. :-)

So many possibilities

I cant wait until I can fold up my monitor and put it in my pocket.

Good thing they're flexible

Just imagine giving birth to a CRT. Ouch.

The problem

[eclectro]

The ink cartridges used to do the lithography only come one-quarter filled.

But the question remains...

Will it blend?

'Snuggle' - I don't think that word means what you think it means.

You might consider posting as an AC with this sort of perversion.

Not so fast ... it will come with the warning ...

... "Do not fold, spindle or mutilate."

If you're young enough not to have ever read such a message, don't worry about it.

The price of that new display will be very low, however they'll get you on the cost of screen refreshes.

Wow

[CynicalTyler]

I'm just surprised ASU stopped drinking long enough to make something.
