Ummmm.... no, just go with the $10,000 e-ink billboard, runs off of a
9 volt battery.
Prob, would want to wait for the tv consumer size though, unless you
do an XCSSA hack, and wire ~10 liberos or set of colorized versions
together with a modified Xinerama (10 screens as one).  It'd still set
you back about $10,000 though.
