How does that compare with HDTV?

Thanks for the info (in my own backyard too), I'm looking around for a few pennies.

Looks like Yorkton had been doing a lot of buying in the last few months. I'm not sure what your experience with them is, but in most pennies (that I've watched) when they are large buyers the stock seems to achieve a rapid increase fueled on rumors, followed by rapid decline.

I'm gonna look into it further.

Regards,
Jay

Frank I came across this the other day and would like your opinion on the technology. It would appear that carbon nanotube displays would be incredibly cheap to produce and could give a high quality pic in a very lightweight package. Any thoughts???

ANI INC. DEMONSTRATES A 14” DIAGONAL NANOTUBE DISPLAY

AUSTIN, Texas, April 18, 2002 – Applied Nanotech, Inc. (ANI), a subsidiary of SI Diamond Technology (OTC BB: SIDT), announces the demonstration of a 14” diagonal carbon nanotube display. This display was made with low-cost fabrication techniques on inexpensive glass substrates. No photolithographic steps were required, greatly simplifying the manufacturing process. While the display that ANI demonstrated was monochrome, color is achievable by using different phosphors.

This demonstration is an important milestone for ANI, expanding its carbon nanotube technology from full-color, small-diagonal, low-resolution picture element tubes (used as a component for outdoor sun visible displays) to large area displays for commercial TV applications. “These results are very encouraging and are parallel to our goal of providing a solution for the 50” to 80” HDTV market for future home usage,” said Dr. Zvi Yaniv, President and CEO of ANI.

Many display experts are of the opinion that current flat panel display technologies are not adequate for a low cost, high quality, large area TV for home use. They believe that field emission displays utilizing carbon nanotubes as emitters could provide the solution. ANI is positioned to benefit from advances in this field, holding over 50 issued patents relating to this technology.

The significance of this accomplishment is that the display was made using dispensing (printing) techniques that are proven to be scalable to larger areas. The equipment required to make this demonstration is readily available. “Existing factories can be retooled with a fraction of the capital investment required for other flat panel display technologies,” said Marc Eller, Chairman and CEO of SI Diamond Technology, Inc.
