Abstract
A display device is described which includes a fluid exchange device mated to the display housing. The fluid exchange device makes a fluid tight seal with the display housing and includes a sealing member which may be perforated by a conduit. The conduit provides for the flow of fluids into and away from a cavity within the display device that is used to contain a display medium. The fluid exchange device provides a fluid tight seal with the housing, and the sealing member reseals itself upon withdrawal of the conduit from the sealing member.
