Why make a leather notebook when you can make one out of fabric? That seems to be what the designers at Fujitsu are thinking. Their Fab PC concept is a laptop made from fabric with a flexible e-paper display that makes this lappie easy to fold up and take on the road. The fabric also makes the laptop ultra-light and ultra-rugged (you'll never have to worry about dropping this notebook on concrete). No word on when we'll see a working version of the notebook, but we can only hope.

Metallic fabric would be interesting too, say, Stainless Steel.
As long as it isn't at a bend point the stuff would wear well, afford excellent protection, could be used to help wireless performance by acting as an antenna, and you'd be able to clean it with same stuff you use in the kitchen!
Or maybe some black-anodized Titanium mesh...
Anyway, it's a great concept.
Neat stuff, Fujitsu.
