    Haven't people figured out yet that this whole "apple tablet" rumor mill is just a ploy on Apple's part to keep Microsoft busy and distracted while Apple finishes up some other top secret project?

    Wake me up when they're announced with Pixel Qi screens. I want sunlight readability and ridiculous battery life! Is that so much to ask?

    @unique172: If you look really deep into my posts, you see me predict them using Qi screens months ago. It'd really be the smartest move, I think. The screen would cost THEM $500, accounting for THIRTY PERCENT of the costs? If they are going to project a cost anywhere close to that, it'd BETTER be running a full version of OS X. Otherwise, anything at $500+ is simply overpriced for a giant iPod Touch.

    @ovil200: I remember someone (you?) saying that, but haven't heard any real news. I agree about the price. I doubt anyone will buy a $1000+ version of the touch, even if it IS shiny.

    @unique172: What the heck is that $1000 price tag. Sorry it's just not practical in this time of recession. I'll do my ebook reading and iTunes music with my cheap 10.1 inch Asus 1005HA. It does the same stuff plus more.

    @rjbuddyboi: Nobody knows the price; I was saying that I doubt anyone would pay that much. But judging by the non-contract price of the iPhone, I doubt the tablet will be cheap. I'd be very surprised if it was less than $500-600. I have a netbook too, but if it came with a reflective, low-power sunlight readable display I'd be very tempted. Hell, if any real device (that allowed internet access, keyboard input, etc) came with that display, I'd probably drop some $$.

    Who cares about reasons for a supposed delay - it could be due to a global shortage of pixie dust for all it matters since we are spreading rumors of rumors about a rumored device that is rumored to be available some rumored day. Come on - tell us the sucker is fission powered and they have to get approval from the nuclear regulatory body before Miley Cyrus will write the start-up song and Buddha waves an arm and it sits in every humans lap of life.

    I bet what they're not saying is that they've got big plans for some OLED roll-to-roll printing, which -- once they have kinks worked out like ink solvent systems, ink drying times, and printing resolution -- should DRASTICALLY reduce OLED display manufacturing costs.

    GE has already got a working prototype (linked below). While it may be lousy and expensive, the technology is advancing quickly, and I think LG is banking on this stuff, to make a bold statement like "OLEDs will be cheaper than LCDs in the future".

    I don't understand the rationale behind releasing this data. All this will do is make people hold off on getting a new TV until OLED is cheaper which won't help to encourage manufacturing improvement if people aren't buying. #lgoledroadmap

    @aek8: It's not like OLED is suddenly going to drop in price 75% on the first of January, 2016. It'll be a gradual process, and as the TVs get cheaper, people will start to get them. The continued and inevitable reduction in cost of LCDs never stopped people investing in them either. #lgoledroadmap

    Thats funny. By 2016 there will be some other new technology driving the TV industry. So obviously by 2016 LED's will be affordable.

    Just when LCD's were becoming more affordable, BAM! here comes LED Tv's.

    Tv's are becoming like PC's, obsolute in 6 months. #lgoledroadmap

    @chasper14: Nobody's forcing you to upgrade just because a new technology exists. Only a total idiot would run out and buy an OLED at ten times the cost of a picture-quality-equivalent plasma. You can wait until it's at a price parity, in 6 years (not months). #lgoledroadmap

    It's beautiful, I would never use it.
    BUT, there are several interesting ideas there to create something beautiful AND useful...
    The very definition of concept.

    Ditching that keyboard would be the first thing. Make the screen touchable, then no problem implementing a virtual keyboard there.

    But I'm guessing the computer parts would be on the keyboard... still, better to put some keys on it (at least IMHO).

    Finally, everyday I say a little pray for the day gadget makers stop with the glossy crap. #samsungamoledconcepts

    If only hardware manufacturers watched some anime. They'd find so many cool ideas.

    So anime FTW, yes?

    Yes I did draw that picture, so please ask for permission before faping to it - I mean, use it or modify it.

    Imagine the awesome tablet PC that could be created from combining this with an e-ink display. Put the e-ink display first with the transparent OLED layered on top. Then the OLED can go transparent when reading books, but can come to life when doing normal computing. #lgamoledconcepts
