I'm wondering how this system can prevent spam. What's preventing someone from DDoSing the network with messages?

If that thing is remotely possible it could be interestering for bitcoin... or implementing its successor...
Questions:
If using BTC - how would it store the blockchain etc?
Can that type of tech fit into the dimensions? 1.3mm isnt really much.. and i think a lot of space is "wasted" with PV and battery.. not to speak of the screen+buttons..
Estimated price?

It doesn't need to store the blockchain... it just needs to store the private keys to sign transactions and have a couple trusted sources to check balances with.
The thickness is impressive, but there are very very thin displays and PVs available these days.
Price will be key since these things are worthless unless a shitload of people have them.

I want to see a prototype in action.

This is key. If their business model allows them to offer the actual cards for very little money (or perhaps even for free), in exchange for rapid acceptance and attainment of critical mass, it could be a game changer.
Otherwise, it will be a case of "can you hear me now?"
