There seems to be a lot of work being done in OLEDs. Organic Light Emitting Diodes. These can be made smaller (higher resolution) than LCDs, and need no backlighting because they glow. This paves the way for cool things like flexible screens e.g.

I believe OLED (organic light emitting diodes) are all the buz for 2007 onwards:

Also eventually square & rectangular displays will become a thing of the past:

My personal favourite is to get an HD projector, much better than a horrible, huge plastic and glass lump in the corner of your room.
Also glass displays have their days numbered, since plastic displays are currently being developed which will be flexible and cheaper to produce.

I'm looking forward to SED tellies from Toshiba and Canon.
Surface conduction Electron emittiing Displays - each subpixel has it's own electron gun whereas CRTs have three (I think) for the entire screen.
Assuming they live up to the hype of course.
Supposed to have all the benefits of CRTs i.e. colour and black reproduction, contrast levels, refresh rates etc and the benefits of LCDs i.e. low power consumption and large and flat.
Apparently Toshiba and Canon are in a bit of a legal wrangle at the mo with some company that claims that their intellectual property has been stolen and used in the displays.
Whowhatwhy, that circular display looks fab.

ive also read that s.e.d. technology was shown off 'behind closed doors' at kast years ces show and the common consensus was that its the best hd picture by miles.
unfortunately,as mentioned above,they are now in delay hell and are siting Q4 2007 for release ie almost 12 months away and at an almighty price no doubt !
