They're calling it e-paper and it seems to be the coming thing. Imagine having one thin flexible sheet upon which you could display most anything you wish to watch or read.

This blog on CFA's space gives some interesting snippets regarding Sony' position in the race to bring flexible display technology into the consumer realm.

Once again we are looking at an impending technological advancement that could have significant beneficial effects. I'm sure that ergonomic consumer electronics engineers are watching this scenario with glee. Imagine a Research In Motion (NASDAQ: RIMM) BlackBerry that will slip into your back pocket and fit the curve of your butt cheek, or think about a PC that you could wear as a wrist band all day. When developers merge flexible display technology with something like Motorola's (NYSE: MOT) self-powering display technology (and they will), we're going to be treated to mobile electronics that only a few of us ever imagined were possible.
