American Airlines has introduced Mobile Boarding Pass, which allows you to avoid having to print a boarding pass at home. Instead, a link to the boarding pass is emailed to your device. You follow the link to retrieve a device-only version of your boarding pass which can be shown to security and gate personnel. Currently, you can only use this for non-stop flights from Chicago O’Hare, LAX or Santa Anna, so it’s extremely limited. The other obvious problem is showing your boarding pass after you pass through the metal detector - you can’t take your phone through the detector, so how can you show the boarding pass after you pass through?

More information on Mobile Boarding Pass can be found here.
