Via Bruce Schneier's blog, flexible displays that can sit on smartcards.
So we finally have an output mechanism that means you don't have to
trust smartcard terminal displays:

ng-cards-more-secure/
So, when do we see the combined chip/fingerprint reader/display on a
payment card :) Doesn't of course address the requirement that we want
evidence (such as a signed paper receipt) that can later be adjudicated
by a court with higher evidential standards than a bank statement that
their systems work perfectly...
