We’ve seen Sony shrink TVs to supermodel proportions with its cute Sony Drive XEL-1 OLED TV and, most recently, its almost invisible 0.3mm thin OLED telly, but now rival Samsung is injecting sex and skinniness into the laptop space.

This concept laptop sports a 12.1in AMOLED display with a 1280 x 768 resolution and a cool – although not sure how functional – touch-sensitive keyboard. As you can see it's very thin indeed and would probably make even the anorexic MacBook Air look fat.

There’s not a lot of detail as to what’s under the hood but you can probably bank on a solid state drive (SSD).

Although this is not in production, Samsung is planning to launch laptops using OLED displays up to 15.5in in size from next year. This one goes on show at the Society for Information Display (SID) Show next week in Los Angeles.-Martin Lynch
