U.S. Counts on Microdisplays

[Electronic News 05-24-99, page 2]

"...the real growth opportunities for microdisplays lay in communication devices such as cell phones, portable devices that enable e-mail or faxes, and some nonobvious applications such as local broadcasting."

Nonobvious -- his words ,, perhaps he plans on filing a patent.
Kopin and Gemplus are already working on this. Of course, their multimedia wristwatch won't be in the same class as Dick Tracy's 2-way wrist television.

If the local broadcast were on a dedicated channel or frequency, the viewer could be a simplified device designed for reception on that channel only.
