Samsung to offer world's first OLED laptop next year

Samsung to offer world\'s first OLED laptop next year

With all this talk of OLED screens on the way, it had to happen: an OLED laptop. Samsung says it aims to roll out this beauty with a 12.1-inch, 1280x768 AMOLED screen by the end of next year, and it might even be available as early as the third quarter.

Samsung SDI is the world's largest OLED screen manufacturer, so it would be only natural for it to be first up with an OLED notebook. This will certainly be a premium item — nobody's talking price, but we're guessing this sexy lappie will probably cost at least $5000. Fast forward five years, and OLED laptops will be commonplace ... and cheap.

Where's the arm rest and the touch pad? This is not the final product but it doesn't even look like a laptop more like "netbook" pathetic. But I like the idea of using OLED technology in laptops.

If all components can be packed in a thickness lesser than a few mm ... whats with arm rest and touch pad :-) ... this is super cool ...

I'd like it if the kept everything normal and just had like the OLED screen retract into the frame of the laptop itself. That'd be pretty cool.

But then, the idea that they're going to be using OLED in laptops soon is amazing. =]
