BoingBoing pal Roland Piquepaille says:
I already wrote about roll-up screens for televisions or for computers. Now, researchers at the University of Toronto (U of T) say that, sooner or later, "powering up your laptop may require that you unroll it first." Engineers at U of T have developed "flexible organic light emitting devices (FOLEDs), technology that could lay the groundwork for future generations of bendable television, computer and cellphone screens." FOLED technology could be manufactured using a low-cost, high-efficiency mass production method and products should be available within two to three years. This overview contains more details and references. It also includes a very nice picture of the lead researcher showing such a flexible device.
