Lighter and more resistant to damage. Edge-to-edge screens are in our future. A 5.5inch edge to edge screen with a 1.85 aspect ratio and 1080p would be smaller than the Samsung Infuse!

A 5 inch 1.85 aspect ratio 1080p edge-to-edge flexible screen would be the optimum size. It would be smaller than the Samsung Galaxy S II, and far more pocket-able.

Imagine a quad-core edge-to-edge 5 inch flexible android handset.

Just because the screen is flexible what about making it capacitive, the batteries, basically every internal part of the phone isn't flexible. Not gonna happen...anytime soon

ATTCallCenter, You are correct, but shattered screens will disappear. Although I wonder how scratch resistant these flexible screens will be. If they don't scratch and don't shatter then this is definitely the future of phone, tablet, computer, and television displays.

Yeah, this stock is going to pay-out, bigtime.

There are flexible batteries and flexible circuit boards, they're just not as far a long as the flexible screens
