    Great. More throw-away circuitry to end up in landfills or in 3rd world countries where everything has to be pulled apart by poor children for recycling.

    I'd much rather see energy focused on better e-ink technology so we can ultimately end up with reusable flexible displays like in Minority Report.

    If they are going to display 40mins of video on a magazine, what about the accompanying audio? I don't want to watch EW in Mute or do these things come with headphone jacks?

    There's no sense in running around with a burr in your britches. If you keep being ornery, I reckon that nary a fellow will be wanting to be your chum. Now be a decent chap and make apologies to the good sir.

    @GitEmSteveDave_TryinToTakeItBa...: Ahh. That takes me back. I remember watching showings of "The Simpsons" in my youth. It would cost me a tuppence at the nickelodeon, but for a threepenny, you got a doubled-feature.

    I remember waiting in anticipation for each Saturday's matinee showing. I scrimped and saved, sometimes helping about the home. If I helped grand-mere darn the stockings, I could usually rely on getting a shiny wheatpenny as a reward. I had once (when I was a bit older, nearing adolescense) offered to help shoe the carriage horses. Papa said that that was servant work and if Josiah (the Scot who was in our indenture) did not finish that and scrubbing the brougham by week's end, he get quite the thrashing.

    Then, came boarding school with stolen kisses from Viola Duchamp who would meet me once a fortnight under the old elm tree.

    And Helena and Deidre perished of influenza. Miriam, sadly, was done in when her whalebone corset broke in twain, puncturing her lung with one of the ribs. Her alabaster skin offered scant protection from the Great Fish's revenge.

    Malcolm never returned from Crimea and Johnathan was crushed by a wayward coach.

    In reply to Samsung's Animated, Flexible OLED Passport Shown On Video
    Solving a non-existent problem IMO... how many times does someone pass off a passport with someone else's picture on it, and succeed because they looked fairly similar to the person on the passport?


    When they experimented with photo-ID credit cards they found that the photos weren't even glanced at.


    It would make it harder to make a counterfeit from scratch, but even if the chips on the real passports were "unhackable," if all they did was display images when energized, it could just be implemented in another way on the copies.

    I'll stick with my luddite paper passport that is probably more secure (except for the extremely hackable RFID in it).


    Technology and government bureaucracy combine to form inflated costs and avoidable clusterfucks almost without exception.

    Although this is impressive, I wouldn't really call it "seamless."

    I wonder if this means Art Lebedev will create an entirely new, cool, product with this? Blogs will extol its virtues, geeks will admire it, and the world will await the day it emerges from the lab. And when it finally does ship, no one, not a single person, will buy it.

    This is nice and all, but it seems pretty unnecessary. If buttons are a concern of yours, this this doesn't look like it's going to be better than simply getting a phone with regular buttons under the display, and something with a very good responsive touch screen is not going to need this (who blindly pokes at touch screens anyway?) I could be wrong, but I don't see button/touch screen hybrids going that much further beyond the Blackberry Storm's method. There really doesn't seem much of a reason to.

    But you still need set button spaces. So you'd still need a standalone touchscreen for applications where where you touch is variable (dragging maps, scrolling, games where you're to tap a moving character). Unless, of course, they can have pixel-large perforations...
