Remember a few years ago a technology was developed that allowed manufacturers to create video displays with fancy ink jet printers? Well, we're finally starting to see some devices made with that process. 13", 15", even a massive 40" system are all in prototype at this time, with commercial products expected in 2006.

Other "thin" display techologies are expensive because they're really hard to make, especially at very large sizes. This technology holds the promise to become so cheap the displays could be mounted on ceilings and used for (infinitely flexible) lighting applications. The jobs of my two friends Damion and Joshua could get a lot more interesting in the years ahead.
