Two interesting technologies have just been announced in the flexible-computing arena. First (via engadget<\/a>) is NEC’s announcement of their Organic Radical Battery<\/a>, a 300-micron thick flexible battery with an energy density of about 1 mWh\/cm2<\/sup> and recharge time of just 30 seconds. Then throw in Plastic Logic<\/a>‘s announcement<\/a> of a 10″ diagonal SVGA E-Ink display (4-level greyscale) that’s both flexible and less than 0.4mm thick.
