So when can I buy my 1600p 6.1" tablet? 'Cause I want me some of that...
Is it really going to rival e-ink? The benefit of the latter is that it doesn't need to be backlit and hence is very easy to read without eye strain. e-ink isn't that high resolution - in fact it's easy to see how bad the resolution is if you peer at it closely, the aliasing on my Kindle is noticeable. Similarly it's low power, has a stupid contrast ratio and is sunlight readable - none of these is likely to be ousted by an LCD any time soon.

It's cool tech though; once it's gone below the visible threshold there's not much point improving it further. Where it could be really useful is in mirrorless cameras or in-glasses screens, where visible pixels is extremely detrimental.

With that resolution, it definitely won't run Crysis...
Would like to see a 30" display with that kind of pixel density!
Mmm, pixels..
bring that resolution (or higher) to a 23/24" monitor and im happy

...heads to patent office.
I don't think it'll replace e-ink, personally I'm hoping for a true hybrid technology on that front, but it does defeat one of the barriers of LCD technology.
wow, that is insane. probably another 10 years atleast before this would even be commercial though.
