How about a 75' TV you can carry around like a scroll.

It'd be a rather thick scroll. :)

The problem of break-ability again comes to mind.

The use case is niche. All the electronics for control still have to be there, so it isn't featherweight or anything, and it is not exactly pocket sized, and now the screen is really fragile.
