LG to mass produce flexible e-paper

LG debuts newspaper sized virtually paper thin flexible e-paper display

LG has decided  to mass-produce a 19-inch flexible e-paper monochrome display, with a 9.7-inch e-paper colour display. The former is just about big enough to rival a real broadsheet newspaper, is just 0.3mm thick and weighs about 130g, which is light enough to hold for a while, especially for its size.

It will apparently use minimum power, requiring it only when changing display. Apart informing the SEC of its decision to put these flexible displays into production, LG has not revealed their availability or pricing yet.

The bendable 19-inch display is the largest the industry has ever produced and could eventually replace newspapers and magazines made of dead trees and ink..
