   e-ink displays are mechanical, because the microcapsules physically move around inside the display.

   LCDs are also mechanical, since the liquid crystal molecules have variable twist depending on the current through them -- which is why response times drop when they get cold.

   CRTs have zero moving parts, thus are solid-state.
