Mobile Display Industry Snapshot June 2009

Last week, we published our biggest Mobile Display Report (MDR) issue of the year, with details of the recent SID Display Week Symposium and Expo. The Report documents the display industry news and activities for monitor-sized and smaller displays, components and finished products. MDR goes beyond the headlines digging deep into news events -- offering "the why" behind the news with new technologies and companies you don't normally hear about in mainstream media. And, we seek to uncover new information that you won't find anywhere else. Here are some of the items of note for this month.
