SIEMENS had shown such a display speaker at CeBIT 2002.

Here a German blog entry with some photos and descriptions:

I didn't thought about the subject. Hopefully, nobody will put me on a
blacklist ;-)

The idea from the Jackito sounded good to me - use the screen surface
as the audio transducer, that way if you play a low-frequency sound
you can feel it with your fingers.  And it's much lower-power than
using the vibrator.  But I'm not sure how you attach a piezo to the
screen; maybe the idea is to just vibrate the touchscreen film so as
to have lower mass.

i'm not sure that's a good idea: is the screen designed to take such
repeated vibrations, they're usually pretty sensitive?
Do you think this applies also for the build-in vibrator (give me another
name :-) )? I don't hope, that many incoming phone calls will harm my
display.
I think the two constraints are the battery an the livetime of the motor.


imo the whole idea would get pretty annoying after the initial novelty
wore off, and i'm sure most people will disable it pretty quickly
For sure, it will be annoying if you use it for every keystroke while typing a message. But for special buttons like hang-up or close an application, it
might be very comfortable.

Greetings,
Sven
