What about their price point? More likely looking

However cost remains a huge obstacle. While Nanosys claims to already be able to create inkjet printable quantum dot display surfaces and has even demonstrated this technology to research organizations, the price of doing so is nowhere near commercially viable. The company is thus aiming for further refinement of both quality and cost. “If we can get the cost of making a display down to $100 per square meter, which is basically the same cost as printing a high-resolution poster or printing a T-shirt, then displays could be everywhere,” According to Russell Kempt, VP of sales and marketing at Nanosys.
The author adds his own disclaimer, to his credit:
Of course, all of the above predictions are just that, predictions, and by a company that’s naturally enough eager to promote its own technology as much as it can. What we can say however is that even with their existing consumer market applications, quantum dot crystals inside filter screens on 4K TV displays have indeed shown themselves to be subtly fantastic performers. And if Nanosys or some other company can indeed cheaply create the paper-thin pure ELQD crystal displays they’re trying to make printable, what we’ve seen so far of QD technology bodes well for claims of ELQD crushing the competition with OLED.
