The fact that it costs twice as much as a standard display is unfortunate, but I've heard two interesting ideas for future applications.  Imagine such a screen in the dashboard of a car, where the driver sees maps/directions, but the passenger watches a DVD!  Or... imagine a multiplayer Xbox game where the screen no longer has to be split!

    But what about sound? I - for one - hate wearing headphones. The MP XBox idea would be awesome, though.
