I don't think you have much to worry about for a while. Like any new process, it will most likely be initially expensive. Notice they didn't specify a price.

However, how cool would it be to use this as the inside layer on a car windshield/windows? No need for a car battery. Although replacing them would be a PITA. Imagine hooking jumpercables to your windows, lol.

Seriously, transparency aside, I can see these being used fairly soon in portable devices like cell phones, PDAs, handheld game consoles, etc since they are very thin. Imagine a 10s pack only a few mm thick. :)

Also, I didn't see anything that specifies the cell voltage...
