Bend Your Phone? Nokia Flexible Display

Nokia Kinetic flexible display. IS it the way of the future?

Here at Nokia World in London, the big news was the announcement of the Lumia 710 and Lumia 800. beyond the phones of today; however, Nokia is looking at what phones may look like in the future, and showing off some of the possibilities in its "Future Lounge."

One of the most interesting "Future" demos was of Nokia's Kinetic devices, which can be bent and still work, and actually use that bending to control them.

This smartphone demo is definitely still in the prototype stage, but is pretty amazing to play around with. The device was loaded with photos and music. Bending the top right-hand side of the screen will allow you to scroll up, while bending the bottom corner will scroll down. Once you've selected a picture, you can bend the entire device to zoom in and out on a portion of the photo-pretty wild.

I remember when people thought touchscreens would be stupid because of "accidental press" and fragile glass screen.

And what do you know here we are with a new idea and people think it's stupid. Give it a year or so.

Plus apple will do it and then people are gonna flip out cuz apple it "supreme". I think apple is retarded with all their dumbs closed OS.
