That's called an electroluminescent display. Old Handspring (and maybe old Palm?) PDAs had them. Not the best looking things, but they're serviceable. One year a few years back a massive ice storm in the Southeast US meant I went 5 days without electricity. I spent those long, dark nights reading from my Handspring's electroluminescent backlight. (It fed off of AAA batteries-- if it was something that had to be recharged every few hours, I'd have been SOL the first day.)
