A look at the future of notebook displays by SONY !!!

While the news is still not officially confirmed by sony, lets have a look at the new display concepts that can be expected with future Sony Vaio notebooks. These notebooks feature a holographic glass screen that can go transparent and a keyboard that turns opaque when turned off. The display is such that it remains opaque as a normal LCD/LED display in notebooks but the specialty is that they turn transparent when is display is switched off. Another interesting yet innovative thing in this concept is that when the keyboards are switched off, they turn completely opaque like a brick.

According to various sources, this is just a concept as of now and further details regarding the battery life, feature specs are not available as yet. Lets hope to see this emerging technology in the near future.

Nokia 888 Concept Phone : “Form follows you”

               Well this is something new and a strange concept from Nokia ... Its currently called as the Nokia 888 Concept phone and is totally different from the regular cellphones we use now.You dont have to carry it in your pocket or on your wrist. You can carry it anywhere, in anyform. You can roll it, bend it, put on your clothes like a clip. It also makes some form changes that makes it more ergonomical: i.e. when you want to talk on the phone, the body form turns into the form of the good old telephone. You can personalize these forms and record them. So it fits you the best in the way that you have chosen. The functions that it has also create a feeling of electronical pet, as it senses your moves, understand what you want, respond you in the best way. The phone's shape is completely customisabe according to the needs of the user hence the tag line “Form follows you”.

                 The Nokia 888 features a flexible touch screen UI and a touch sensitive body cover which lets it adjust according to the environment. It has a simple programmable body mechanism so that it changes forms in different situations. Another important feature of the phone is that it uses a liquid battery which is not rechargeable but has enough power to last for atleast 18 months of regular usage. There are unconfirmed rumours that it might have a solar charging panel for charging the battery.

                  Another splendid feature of the phone is e-motions. This allows users to interact which each other.You can send and receive forms from / to friends. As an example, you can send a heart shape to your friend, so her telephone turns into an icon of heart. Or you can send a dancing form to your friends to call them to the party tonight. This is the fun side of the product which makes it quite unique and sought for.
                Wondering when this phone will be a reality??Well, its expected to hit the markets of Europe by the end of 2011. So lets wait and watch for this awesome gadget to launch !!!
