designer concepts. I've seen at least two flexible phone concepts in the last year. But so far they only exist in designer's imagination (ie nit even ingeneer imagination)

That's freaking unbelievable! A folding AMOLED screen!

Nokia had the flexible design idea ages ago with the "Morph Concept".

But I'm pretty sure it mysteriously infringes on Apple's patents. *YAWNS*

I sure picked a bad era to quit smoking! :p

flexible displays seem to be relatively easy to do (oled -> polymer based -> flexible). flexible motherboard and especially flexible batteries that are not worse than android's current state are just not really production ready.

Strange.. This reminds me an awful lot like the Nokia Morph Concept.

It looks like it's finally becoming a reality.

The Morph is no longer a smartphone, it's a biochemical nano-built weapon.

That's some nice tech, but it kinda feels a little wasted on such a small screen...

I now want a humongous panoramic TV!
