 not sure, but at that kind of pixel density with the smaller holes,
where the yields are going to be lower (so they have to smash and
recycle the glass again and again), i'd put a finger-in-air guess at
say... $60 to $80 rather than $32 to $35.  so i'd expect them to be at
least double the price.

 mind you if there's a company out there that's solved the yield
problems of pushing liquid crystal under enormous pressure from the
outside edge into all 1080 of those tiny holes, then the pricing will
be better.

don't know.  anyone got any leads on what pricing's actually like?
