Are you involved in this effort...?

It certainly sounds like an interesting idea, and screens are definitely 
things that age most obviously (or have at least aged very obviously in the 
past). Plus, albeit not for a games console, having screen technology choices 
like e-paper would be nice for certain kinds of devices.

Sadly, I don't have any opinions about connectors, but I thought I'd indicate 
some kind of support for what you're doing. :-)
