The percentage of electronics at the end of their lives which were recycled.
The EPA found that the percentage remained consistent from 1999-2005. Even as recycling rates went up, the amount of electronics reaching end of life outpaced the increase, leaving the figure static. (source: EPA, July 2008)

Yeah but Does it play...
LOL only joking
They made TFT bubbles?
Ps why is it ALWAYS the Asians
Because they actually exercise thinking outside the box?
because they have awesome final fantasy haircuts!
Low ranked? Why?
It is always the Asians
Because they push out more engineers than anyone else.
Oops, asians accidentally the population.
Sounds interesting, but show us that display in action. A transparent disc doesn't realy impress me much, I want to see something displayed on it ... If it doesn't need a big ass control unit to actually work this might be huge ...
These look like 12 year olds...
Low temperature? "Made in North Pole" kind of low temperature? :P
"Made without the help of a nuclear reactor" kind of cold.
How flexible are touchscreen films at the moment? Combined they could lead to some really futuristic looking tech.
I want my skin to light up. Put it in me!!!
That's what she said.
Mike, that there was the best use of a TWSS I have ever seen. +127 To you.
The low temperature doesn't immediately translate cheapness, it means the substrate and method of lithography can be more accommodating, like plastic substrate or by inkjet printing.
thats what... she said?
The +127 i gave Mike came out of your pocket, Oli D
Or cover yourself, display what's behind you on it and become invisible.
Are these the same two guys who were singing backstreet boys?
i want a computer monitor made entirely of glass, ala minority report
do you really?
What? No Apple or iPhone reference? This isn't a real Engadget post.
Let me help. "The prototype disc shown above is 5 inches in diameter and contains around 20,000 nanotube transistors. Which is about 20,000 more nanotubes than found in the iPhone."
Now, it is worthy of posting on Engadget.
high rank you for being accurate and true... love it.
Good observation, sir.
was i the only person thinking high tech tramp stamp?
fuck all that.
I want it on my windows so I can wake up tony stark iron man style with displays on my windows overlooking the beach
Go, Trojans!
That seriously sounds like some good stuff! HUDs in cars, planes, Minority Report style viewscreens... this could be great!
hopefully sc nabs the rose bowl game against penn state with a large spread...
I want it on the bottom of my pint glass, so when my friends tell me that the answer isn't down there, i can show them that it literally is.
Why not just paint the number 42 on the bottom of the glass and save yourself the trouble?
i'd make [censored] magazines with movies instead of pictures.
Self camouflaging android skin?
Asians represent!!
this would be great for a car tinting could change the kinda tint that you want based on the sunlight that you encounter be very nice if implemented
Anyone up for a game of Sabacc?
