About the Next-Generation Display Technologies Panel
The notion of accessing the Web primarily through dedicated PCs will soon seem quaint, as cell phones and other handheld devices mutate into indispensable real-time information appliances. But for this to happen, display screens must become lighter, faster, more flexible, more interactive, cheaper and more colorful. Fortunately, new display technologies with these features are just coming to market. This session will provide a snapshot of this emerging field, highlighting the most important new technologies, products and applications.
