skullcandy.jpg Qualcomm's Mirasol displays are the first truly new display technology in a little while. They have extremely fast response times, use very little power, are visible even in the most glaring sunlight and unfortunately are only available in very small sizes right now.

At CTIA Fall today, I saw the latest iteration of Skullcandy's MFM Pro headphones, which are designed for snowboarders. These headphones have a detachable flash-based MP3 player built in, with up to 2 GB of storage.

The new model, which will be available early next year, uses a Mirasol color display that's completely visible even under extreme glare conditions. The little 0.9", 128x64, 4k-color-equivalent panel isn't much to look at, but when Qualcomm manages to make the displays larger, the technology might be a big boon to people who work and play outdoors.
