    I have an OLPC XO-1 and while the viewing angle is poor just due to the way the back of the screen reflects light at too perfect an angle instead of diffusing it, in ambient light it's great, and I'm sure they've improved a lot since the model I have.

    The method for generating color images with a diffraction grating and backlight is also brilliant, and while it makes the image look a bit fuzzy, it's not bad at all, especially for a low cost device. Mary-Lou Jepsen is pretty brilliant and hard working from what I've seen in interviews, and I'm sure their product will do what they say.

    That said, I'm loving the Sony PRS-505 reader I just got because I was tired of waiting for Pixel Qi to release something, but these screens can surely shake up the fledgling e-paper market.

    I think this is a very interesting concept, I know it is in its prototype stage but I can see this being easily developed to a commercially viable model. I see this as being appealing very much to those more focused on computer or digital art who mightn't be able to translate their skills using traditional drawing tools. It would also enable them to produce work with human-like qualities. Quite frankly the idea of being able to achieve this in your own home is quite a radical concept! Yes of course you could ague that they can print their works but the Muralizer gives this a whole new exciting appeal I find, with the possibly of putting more "life" into some of these pieces. I personally know some people who could blow your mind with their digital pieces but would have below average skills with traditional art tools so the concept of the Muralizer would certainly appeal to those and those wanting to experiment with new mediums as well. I think this project looks great and is full of future opportunities! Keep it up I hope it goes well for you!

    So I guess most of you didn't bother to read the recent article about posting USEFUL comments. Ugh

    Anyway, I think this is kind of cool, and for anyone else who does as well, they need a little private funding to get this thing going.

    Go here:
    [www.kickstarter.com]
    and kick in some money to back this project if you like the concept. #muralizer

    He quit his job to work on this, right...

    "You plug it into your computer and load it up with the vector art of your choosing"

    I have something that can do this, it's called a printer.

    This could easily be accomplished with a device similar to an etch a sketch. Adjustable to fit any wall or any portion of a wall. Simply mount it ,run the a connection to a computer and wha la you have an instant wall printer. That could be cheaper than 200 bucks.

    @pz: Actually, the 2.0 system framework won't fit on the Dream. No doubt there may be unsupported ROMs to correct for this, but it looks like there won't be an official OTA 2.0 rollout for the Dream (aka G1), or probably even the mT3G. Other than bug fixes and security enhancements, 1.6 looks to be the last hurrah for the Dream and myTouch. The system memory space is simply too small, and because the Android development team has clearly expressed no interest in running apps from SD, there is no simple way to make room. Donut was "late" for this reason; it had to be pared down to get shoehorned into the miniscule footprint. #android20
