Intel corporation is applying for a patent for flexible display technology based on a pair of flexible sheets which sandwich some magnetic display elements between them.

These magnetic display elements would have a varying degree of magnetically controllable reflectivity, with said reflectivity determined by the location of the pixel relative to the flexible, non-conductive sheets.

This technology is aimed at finally giving us cost-effective display systems that can be rolled into a tube and dropped in the pocket.
