ThinFilm and PARC demo printable, organic CMOS circuit, inch us closer to an 'internet of things'

Engadget - ThinFilm and the legendary PARC (of mouse and GUI fame) announced they have produced a working prototype of a printable circuit that incorporated organic, rewritable memory and transistors. The resulting integrated circuits are essentially CMOS "chips" that can be printed on large rolls at extremely low cost.
