The 4.9" display doesn't sound that special (My 5.3" note is > 720p) however that 6.1" screen does sound good!

Not that special at all when it comes to ppi, the HTC One X is 720p in 4.7inch. I think the new smaller transistors are the good part, should be a much more efficient display.
The super-mega-awesomely dense PPIs are impressive, but taking this to more normal screens is also going to be great for battery life.

Agree with Funkstar, at normal resolutions, it will be great for battery life.
I cant see a mobile GPU having the grunt to feed a 13.5 inch display with that resolution for quite some time.

So what is the actual purpose/need of a flexible screen?
Re: News - Sharp is ready to show its new IGZO LCD panels and more
I guess it would be a lot more durable. If the touch interface and protective layer on top is also flexible, then it isn't going to shatter like current glass screens when dropped.
You can also have slightly curved handsets, not at the angle shown, but just ever so slightly concave, would make using a larger screened device easier with one hand.
Along with flexible, you also achieve thinner, so that on it's own is a selling point.
