Samsung Showcase


There are some pretty cool concept technologies here.  My observations

1.  It's all about the touch screen - the clam shell, case in point.  I heard at the ulearn conference a speaker comment that the ipad is the first new technology in a long time to actually revolutionise personal computing - it'll be the death knell of the keyboard and mouse.

2.  Why do we need curvy screens?  Because we can!  Love it...

3.  The see through screen at the end reminds me of a vid I saw a few months ago.  A Concept is closer to a prototype. - Puts this fact in context - 'Half of all the knowledge that exists wasn't known 10 years ago.'  Scary - that was said in 2005.  Even scarier - 'The knowledge keeps doubling every 5 years!'
