Shatter Proof Screens

Jumpn Jack Flash · 01-05-2010, 11:10 AM

Ever afraid that the device I will soon purchase may no longer function if it comes in contact with my ass and with the Skiff announcement I have to ask

What devices are coming to the market with plastic/foil screen substrates?

In short, goodbye glass, hello durability.

Only two I know of in the immediate future are the Skiff and the Plastic Logic Que. Other than those, none have been announced. Perhaps there will be another contender at CES or shortly thereafter, depending on the reception of the aforementioned two.

PVI has announced that they have started to make both 6" and 9.7" screens with a plastic, rather than glass, substrate but, to the best of my knowledge, none has actually hit the market yet.
