Four screens, no waiting
With a 15.6-in. main screen and 3 of auxiliary 3.5-in. displays above its keyboard, Intel's Tangent Bay prototype helps you segregate and organize information. Put sticky notes, a clock, a menu from Word or whatever you want in the small screens; if you flick a screen with a finger, its content will move up and take over the main screen.
Transformer
Although it was designed as the ultimate gaming machine with two processors and a high-end graphics engine, the Prime laptop folds up to the size of a 13-in. notebook. Unfold it and it can be a huge tablet workspace, a clamshell notebook with a 26-in. ultrawide screen or one with a traditional 15-in. 4:3 ratio display. It's composed of six aluminum wings that slide and hinge to create several different configurations, each suited to a different style of work or play.
Airo Origami
This prototype from Asus may look like a standard ultrathin notebook, but its parts can be folded in different ways to create a flat tablet or a clamshell notebook with an upright screen. Its keyboard slides up into place as the lid is opened, leaving a gap underneath for ventilation, making it a marvel of packaging and cooling.
Multi-Fold
Composed of three panels held together by two piano hinges, Qualcomm's ultramobile Multi-Fold can be a long, narrow screen for watching movies or viewing a map, a traditional-looking notebook with a tall screen, or a table clock/Internet terminal. It all depends on how you fold it.
Freescale/SCAD smartbook
With dual pull-out keyboards around a central 7-in. screen, Freescale's smartbook concept, developed in cooperation with the Savannah College of Art and Design, squeezes a lot of computer into a small package.
Rolltop
Like a small Oriental rug, the Rolltop computer unrolls to reveal a large open-screen tablet with a pop-out stylus. The system can also be folded up to create a good imitation of a traditional clamshell notebook with upright screen and keyboard below. The ports, speakers and power adapter are housed in a cylinder that the whole thing is rolled onto when you're ready to hit the road.
Slider
This concept netbook borrows ideas from the disappearing keyboards on cell phones. The split keyboard has a track down the middle that the 9-in. screen slides on -- slide it up to type on the mechanical keys or slide it flat to use the touch screen.
SABRE
Freescale's SABRE smartbook is two computers in one: a tablet that is light and small enough to hit the road with you, with a keyboard-based docking station that makes the tablet feel like a desktop PC when you return.
OLPC XO-3
The One Laptop Per Child project's concept for its next-generation XO device -- a superslim plastic slate tablet -- makes even the MacBook Air look chubby. Bonus: There's a loop at the top corner to hang it off of a backpack.
Pocket Yoga
Lenovo's Pocket Yoga downsizes a netbook to the size of a stenographer's pad that can fit into a back pocket, but does so with a usable screen and keyboard. Elegant and clad in leather, the Yoga has a touch screen for scribbling, drawing or navigating, as well as a physical keyboard for typing. Alas, the Yoga was a concept design only, never intended to become a shipping product.
Courier
Although Microsoft recently canceled the Courier project, it shows the possibilities of a system composed of two hinged screens. It can be an e-book or a traditional notebook.
PC-Z1 Netwalker
Available today in Japan, Sharp's PC-Z1 Netwalker micronotebook is based on an early Freescale prototype system. It weighs just 13 oz., has a 5-in. screen and can run for 10 hours on a charge. Because it runs on Linux, it won't be for everybody, but the NetWalker comes with apps for Web work, e-mail, images and keeping up with your busy schedule.
