if they fix the bending limit, this product will have so much more potential

 

[joytech22]

The limits on how many times it can be bent really impact on it's potential, or they could be used as double sided animated flags or something i think..

let us see if we can once again defy science fiction, and turn it into a real toy. i'm eager to see the turn-out!

Do they mean bend like roll like a map or Folds? If it folded 6 times that would be ok i guess.
6 Bends would put it on par with the computer paper from Caprica.

Ahh, correct me if I'm wrong. But, haven't they had an article previously that had this very same technology? (Not positive if it was from HP or another company)

It was probably from Universal Display, they had a prototype for the military. It showed off the flexible OLED tech they were prototyping.

Here's a link to some pictures of what Universal Display did:

Speaking of Crysis, can't wait for armband computers. That'll be intensely badass.

 

[crinky]

didnt they already show something like this before?

Did I miss something, or does the video not show it displaying anything? It's not very convincing if there's no proof that it works.
