Panasonic Develops "World's Thinnest Speaker"

At just 1.5mm-thick, Panasonic claims that it has developed the "world's thinnest speaker". Full production is expected to begin next year. Commercial pricing has not yet been set.
...cutting its previous best effort (an enormous 2.5 millimeters thick) by a full 40%, with this room-shaker sliding in at a far more manageable 1.5 millimeters (or 0.059 inches) . Rest assured, despite being sliced nearly in half, according to Panasonic, the speaker will boast the same great sound quality you've come to expect from a speaker the size of a postage stamp

Rock on! Or at least as much as you can with 1.5 millimeters. I can't really see the possible uses of this thing except maybe in applications like watches and maybe smaller cellphones. It's still pretty neat regardless.

You mention postage stamps, which gives me an idea of what it could be used for. Audible paper! Think about it, the possibilities are endless - not only does this open up a whole new horizon for the disabled, but it's pretty damn cool to boot. Place one of these babies on a piece of paper and program it to read the text on the paper (through invention of some equally small device that would enable the speaker to do that).
