this is a brief video showing the eink flexible grayscale reflective display at siggraph 2007 in san diego. the display uses electronic ink, consisting of microscopic two-tone spheres that are polarized so that a current can flip them from white to black. when the screen receives no power, it keeps the last image it had displayed for several months. the display works in sunlight since it is reflective, and the new generation of thin-film transistors used to drive the display is thin and flexible enough for the screen to be rolled up around a thin rod.leo.media.mit.edu

Dunno if that's possible without destroying the image, since the microspheres are black on one half, and white on the other. There doesn't seem to be much possibility in lots of colors, you could however, probably ask for something other than black and white, like yellow and blue or something.

It's probably expensive, but very cool. I imagine it could do wonders for advertising if it was able to be produced for around the same price as printed paper.
