MooPig Tech Coroner :: "Flexible Display"

State-of-the-Art
Retrieved by Pat Darnell and Son  |  Mar 6, 2013  |  Bryan TX

[Picture LINK] In 2004, forward-looking members of the U.S. Army saw the potential flexible displays could bring to soldiers while on the battelfield.

Every time a manufacturer develops a new device, it spells death to many current devices. Easy to understand, right? Right. But is it going to deliver what it promises, and for how long will it deliver before the next device is developed?

Really, this is the root of MooPig's Tech Coroner Department. Without constant developments in state-of-the-art electronic devices our guys in the basement, without windows, would not have that much to do.

What Technologies will "Flexible Displays" supplant?

• Badges: Will flex-display stop a bullet?
• Ultra-pure display glass ... not needed
• Individual Soldier relies on "hand signals" or "shouts" in terms of "communication" ... All Gone
  
• "Hardware" and "heavy duty brackets" for hanging glass displays ... outdated 
• Your "PC" ... to the land-fills.
• "Flat screen TV, projectors, cell phones" ... ta ta .

What Samsung, U.S. Army, and Microsoft are "DEMO-ing" here is an actual "Distortion field."

MooPig Tech Coroner :: "Remember Ma Bell?"

" ... ATandT, for instance, has suggested shutting down its old copper wire system — the only telecommunications platform that worked in some areas after Hurricane Sandy because it relies on a separate, minimal supply of electricity. ... "
Snagged by Pat Darnell, and, TN Correspondent Beka Gunter on faceBook  |  Dec 2, 2012  |  Bryan TX

" ... Just as canals and railroads let America grow in the 19th century, and highways and airports did so in the 20th century, the information superhighway is vital for the nation’s economic growth in the 21st. The nation can’t afford to leave its future in the hands of the cartels. (David Cay Johnston, November 27, 2012. LINK) ... "

Read ARticle here:: Break Up the Telecom Cartels - NYTimes.com: " ... because ATandT’s and Verizon’s own land-based services operate mostly in discrete geographic markets, each cartel rules its domain as a near monopoly."

" ... Americans have been told that competition in telecommunications would produce innovation, better service and lower prices.

" ... As of now huge parts of the United States will never get on the information superhighway but will rather slog along on the digital equivalent of a country road. This presents a genuine economic threat to America: the future industries and jobs that require a universal ultra-high-speed network, after all, will most likely be developed somewhere else. ... "

Decisions for 2008

There is no shortage of communication devices and plans. Despite so, it concerns me there is no increase in communications. Lots of gizmo's, not so much communicating.


Thus, my decision for 2008 and my own voice over Internet protocols will become sweeter. You can bet my prioroty is my output at lowest cost. I want to find suitable communication Tech-nique to get around contracts and phone plans, text advertising, scams and folderole of the like.


I will not however ease up on blogging. I realize MooPigWisdom is a single sided perspective editorial, me,,,and mine -- but at least I am old and opinionated. Old means Wise, didn't you know?

Appearing here as December grinds down, more information on my communications Jones, that I seek, as I find answers to questions; will be a study for us all. So keep you ear to the tracks, and your nose to the wind; the wolves will be vigilante, you can count on it!
For instance:
Why is there bad cellular service in Brazos Valley?
Why can I hear you, but can't see you?
Is this all there is?
What is Text-ing supposed to do?
Which devices are recently gone the way of the pager/beeper?
