Here is a pretty cool video of what appears to be a working screen that is playing back video while the bezel that encapsulates is folds in half. This is just a concept from Samsung right now and probably has lots of technical limitations; it is probably still many years away. If technology like this can be squeezed into pocket sized devices, it could mean some pretty amazing displays on MIDs that don’t have any issue with folding up and going with you in your pocket during your day to day travels.

How come no one has commented on this yet?
This could become very interesting!

This looks different from the Philips foldable screen technology (which is far from production).
It seems the screen is solid but split in 2 with a tiny bezel seperating them. Since it’s OLED that seems plausible? Still great idea which will allow doubling of screen size.

This is a great idea!!!
when a MID or UMPC like OQO with this and Win7?
