wellcraft, that is certainly nice news to read. I had not found where PVI was as close as Plastic Logic. Maybe I gleaned the wrong impression from the Plastic Logic demo vids but I thought they specifically mention building a new factor in Germany to make their displays. Or am I confused with PVI in that area?

Yeah, about 1:30 into this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=50x8h7fF4DU the guy specifically says they created their own display technology. That is where I was assuming that PL is a display manufacturer. Maybe they are not going to make displays for other companies? Only for their devices? It might make sense or not, hard to decide.
