Sonys PSP2 design study with flexible OLED


Sony just barely updated the PSP but designer Tai Chiem is already thinking about the next iteration. His design calls for a flexible OLED display that can be conveniently rolled. An electric charge powering the display stiffens it while providing near bezeless prime real estate for gaming. Stereo speakers on either side double as a jog wheel and camera control. He also envisages Sony finally implementing two joysticks. Pipe dream or not, it’s sexy and lives up to its name; it don’t get any more portable than this.

It's vaporware today for sure, but methinks we could be gazing at the portable media and communications device of the future. Sony shows for a few weeks a full color flexible OLED, so in 2-3 years this could be reality.
