Imagine a color display screen so thin that it’s like paper – especially flexible. E-paper displays have been in development for a short few years, but LG.Philips just came out with one of the largest: 14.3 inches on the diagonal. Except it’s only available in Korea, like many new consumer electronics products.

Soon, I hope. Now just add a frame, a box for the guts, increase the size a bit, and we’ll have paper-thin, Wi-Fi-enabled, Internet-connected, TV screens on all the walls of our homes. Maybe not giant screen TVs, but still some nice home theater equipment to look forwards to.

Somewhere, Big Brother is chuckling in anticipation for when we all have giant screens on our walls.
