Look what I dug up when I was searching for a good OLED explanation - it seems that OLED is closer than I thought, although there appears to be some serious concerns in adopting OLED. And look at the bottom quote - a 160 x 160 OLED? Hmm - what device could that be for?
"Manufacturers of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display devices are pushing hard on the production throttle even as potential customers raise the caution flag over the technology's adoption, costs, and performance. Starting this month, the Netherlands' Royal Philips Electronics and Taiwan's RiTdisplay Corp. separately will begin mass producing OLED products and target them at applications in the communications and consumer electronics markets. Another Taiwan company, SK Corp., a joint venture between Eastman Kodak Co. and Sanyo Electric Co. Ltd., will begin production later this year...
...RiTdisplay is starting to produce a 2.67in. passive-matrix OLED display with 160 ¥ 160-pixel resolution for PDAs and game-box applications, according to Bruce Lu, director of marketing at the company's Marketing and Sales division."
