Here’s a flexible, paper-like computer screen for my flying car!
Here’s the ”new” electronic Paper announced for the 400th time since 1975. So where’s my flying car? Sheesh.

Epson developing e-paper, giant flexible screens
(PC World) Dec 08, 2005
…The e-paper sheets will be displays mounted on flexible plastic
backings and will be 0.2mm thick. The company wants to develop the
technology to the point where an A4-sized sheet (297mm x 210mm), for
example, would last a month to several months before wear and tear made
it inoperable.
Such a sheet would cost well under $US100, Shimoda said. ….
The company also claims it can make giant TV panels that are light
and flexible enough to be peeled off and on walls. These panels could
combine active matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) technology
with thin film transistor technology and would also be seated on
plastic, Shimoda said.
Such screens could cover whole walls and be used as scenery, he said.
The company is still vague on when peelable TV panels might become a reality but Shimoda has a date in mind.
“I am 50, so I would like to develop the technology before I retire,” he said.
