Researchers developing OLEDs as cheap as newspapers?

Sure, it’ll probably be a good while before you get your hands on an OLED TV, but don’t lose heart, young gadget-head! Techno-wizards at the RIKEN center in Japan have concoted a new way to fashion OLEDs that eschews the standard spin-coated films for something called electrospray-deposited polymer films, incorporating “a novel dual-solvent concept” that makes the ‘em “smoother than before, thereby enabling [...] superior devices.” We’ll skip a few details that don’t mean anything to those of us who aren’t Advanced Materials subscribers (hit the read link for more info) and get to the good stuff: Yutaka Yamagata, the guy who developed this technique, says it will lead to displays “manufactured as inexpensively as printing newspapers.” Is that a promise, Yutaka? If so, we’re holding you to it.

Eee Keyboard tantalizingly within reach at the FCC

The ASUS Eee Keyboard has been delayed a couple times since it first made our hearts race at CES, but it looks like those rumors of an October launch might actually come true: the new-age C64 has just arrived at the FCC for a little government work. Interestingly, the test reports indicate the presence of a UWB radio in addition WiFi and Bluetooth, so it looks like we’ll see the planned wireless HDMI model even after the spec pretty much hit the skids earlier this summer. We’ll see how it goes — and if we get that interesting Moblin version alongside the Windows edition when this thing eventually ships. Fingers crossed!
