Samsung might actually release the transparent AMOLED laptop as a product within 12 months

Remember Samsung 14" transparent OLED laptop? PlusPlasticElectronics says that Samsung actually plans to release this laptop as a real product within 12 months. They also reveal that the IceTouch MP3 player will sell for around $330 and will be released in the US in the first half of 2010.

Samsung wants to dominate the transparent display market, and plans to introduce a range of new products with such displays within the next year. They will even consider products not normally produced at Samsung - such as a transparent automobile navigation system that can be placed on a windscreen. Now how about a transparent OLED TV?


The transparent screen looks

The transparent screen looks cool but I don't think it's practical since you would have to be very particular about where you place and use the laptop. If you were sitting in front of a window, like at an airport, you might not be able to efficiently view the screen; especially text, this could cause eye-strain. Consider the issues with glossy screens on laptops; glare becomes your mortal enemy. Another problem is privacy, can the people on the other side of the screen see what you see?

This is just my humble opinion.
