First Dual-emission OLED Display in a Phone

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the both-sides-of-the-screen dept.

roc_face writes "Japanese electronics joint-venture company ELDis has come up with the world's first dual-emission organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display for a mobile phone. This means the screen can be viewed from both sides. It was on display at the annual Flat Panel Display exposition in Tokyo this week."

    Cool, with this device and a mirror I will be able to watch two screens showing the same image at the same time.

    Seriously though, it will make it very hard to hide from your friends what a lousy nibbles player you are.

    I'm sure there are better uses for this tech than cell phones.

    It's all fun and games until your signifigant other sends you some homemade porn during a business meeting.

    To this day is it not known how the ancient Egyptians managed to build the pyramids without being able to read their cell phones from both sides. One theory suggests rotary technology; more audacious mavericks wonder if they perhaps did not have phones at all.
