Is plasma about to become passé? Hitachi has apparently successfully built what it claims is the world's highest-resolution organic TFT (Thin Film Transistor) display. For the technophobes, the key advantage to organic TFT is its bendable nature. Remember that sheet-thin USA Today tabloid with its moving ads and content in Minority Report circa 2057? While Hitachi's breakthrough (for now) is confined to just 80 x 80 dots in 1.4 inches, the reality of such a flexible LCD newspaper may be closer than we imagine.
