Commercial revenue (chemical sales and royalties) rose to $1.9 million from $1.4 million in 4Q 2008 (35%).

Remember the Philips Mirrorwall ? It’s a wall made out of white Lumiblade OLED panels and a camera, and it basically acts as a mirror, display shadow reflections of people standing in front of it. It turns out that Philips are actually offering this limited-edition wall. The price? about 10-12K€ per m² (they’ll made it just for you). That’s one expensive mirror… But what a spectacular one! If you want a cheaper option, you can also rent the whole thing for about 10K€ per week (excl. transport, insurance and approx. 3 man-days for installation and dismantling)
