E paper, yeah in near future this technology will be totally scrapping the others.
The 14.1-inch flexible color e-paper uses electronic ink from E Ink to produce a maximum of 4,096 colors. It can be viewed from a full 180 degrees, so that images always appear crisp, even when the display is bent, according to the LG.Philips.
Like the black and white flexible display, the color version uses a substrate that arranges TFT on metal foil rather than glass, allowing it to recover its original shape after being bent. This model includes a color filter (CF) coated onto the plastic substrate, allowing it to display color images.
The use of metal foil and plastic substrate rather than glass substrate makes the flexible color e-paper display bendable and durable while maintaining excellent display qualities.
To make this new display possible, the company developed a proprietary processing technology that minimizes panel deformation and prevents circuit structure change during high-temperature processes. LG.Philips LCD focused on the designs of the CF structure and TFT, as well as CF lamination technology. This allowed processing difficulties inherent in the lack of heat resistance in metal foil and plastic substrates to be overcome, stated the company.
These displays are energy efficient, only using power when the image changes. Additionally, the displays are thin, less than 300 micrometers. The images displayed are comparable in quality to printed pages.
In October 2005, LG.Philips LCD unveiled the world’s first 10.1-inch flexible e-paper display.

[...] I was getting to know blogging and was having a plan of having a forum in my blog. Well, call it initial excitement of having forum, and becoz of that my blog went dead for 4 days. I was much impressed with BBpress coz of it’s integrity with wordpress and hence I posted more about bbpress , top 10 plugins for BBpress and about my site’s redesign as the forum was with light background and site with dark background of redoable theme. While working on this I tried to keep my blog alive by posting about Sony Ericsson’s rumored choclate concept phone , Sony’s W880i review and about the world’s first A4 size LCD display by LG. [...]
