I think soon will have a display as thin as paper. Sony has presented 2 Organic EL models at the Display 2007 Expo in Japan, a 27 inch full HD (1,920×1,080) and a 11 inch WVGA model (1024 x 600). The 27 inch model is 9mm thin and the 11 inch(picture above) is only 3mm thin. Not sure when these prototypes will hit markets but Sony has confirmed the 11 inch to be available later this year, Japan first of course. Getting a thinner display helps you in saving spaces, but thin displays are more fragile and it costs you a lot. More pics after the jump.
