Sharp creates five colors per pixels screen

The extra colours extend the colour gamut to the point where it can reproduce more than 99 per cent of real surface colours as defined by the Pointer colour space, a standard for real surface colours derived from measurements of real-world colours from paints, inks, coloured paper, and other materials and pigments.

Can I have one? Please?

Mind you, this is not 99% of the RGB color space, which 99% of the LCD monitors out there can't even reproduce, this is 99% of a more complete standard.
I'm sick and tired of 16.7M color monitors which can't even do basic colors right, let alone 16.7M, but unfortunately this new type of panel will probably end up in $1000+ professional monitors - until OLED comes to the rescue, whenever that is.

Sharp achieved this by using 5 colors per pixel, the typical red, green and blue, plus cyan and yellow sub-pixels. The prototype screen measures 60" and has a 1080p resolution - I'd settle for something smaller.
