This is piece is a little off the path of intelligent content however in many ways compliments what I blog about here. It seems that Sharp has announced that it is about to release in September this year a LCD which has a built in optical scanner.
What this means is that on top of complete removal the the exiting touch screen component from today's mobile devices, we will also be able to use the scanner to scan images, fingerprints, business cards and the like. I also suspect that the impressive multi touch functionality of the IPhone (actual created by an external researcher) will be possible with this new screen.
The piece mentioned above goes into a little more detail and is worth a read if so technically minded.
