The large OLED surface goes from the traditional screen/keyboard configuration to large viewing screen to tablet. The carrying canister becomes the power supply and houses other features like the USB ports. Overall, it seems like a pretty great design. And with the OLED technology that’s already being used in products from Sony, it seems like it won’t be long until we actually see a laptop like this in production.
