It is a flexible full-color LCD display that is 0.3mm (0.01in) thick! I love technology!

I always knew that something like this was going to come along I just never thought it would this fast. The possibilities to this technology are endless, I can't wait to see what comes from this.

That is amazing! Just imagine being able to wrap a larger version of that around something like a car, or a house! Now that would be amazing! I can't believe that it is even back lit!

Are you sure that it is an LCD? Becuase it says....

But the display's pliancy is extremely difficult to imitate with LCD and plasma screens, he said.

and earlier it says.....

The display combines Sony's organic thin film transistor, or TFT, technology, which is required to make flexible displays, with another kind of technology called organic electroluminescent display, it said.

It sounds more similar to an OLED display. I didn't say it is OLED, I said it sounds more similar.
