From Sony's OLED display rollable

Sony(VGP-BPS9/B) has announced an OLED displays are ultra on the size of 4.1 inches and 1000:1 contrast.
This monitor has an amazing resolution of 432 × 240 pixels on an area of about 10.3 cm, the technology that will build this screen will be the OTFT (Organic Thin-film transistors), already used successfully in previous flexible screen: Sony(Sony VGP-BPS8A) had already submitted in May 2007 an OLED display with a thickness of just 0.3 mm and 16.8 million colors.

The selection of these organic materials is simple to explain: the new OLEDs are capable of providing very low thicknesses because they do not need other components to be illuminated (the LCD took their brightness by external light) since they produce their own light , and furthermore their consumption is lower and their working voltage is lower than other devices. Furthermore, their brilliance is superior to other technologies, giving the colors a new sense of vitality.
These advantages are opposed, however, two considerable disadvantages: being composed of organic materials, their decomposition is much faster, and their operation does not exceed 50 thousand hours of power, at least for now. Another disadvantage that affects more market is the high cost of production: prices of new OLED display, whether flexible or not, is necessarily higher for production needs and not just speculation on new technology. But Sony(Sony VGP-BPS9/B battery) is determined to eliminate these disadvantages, as evidenced by the investment of 140 million euros made in 2009.
Research results to date have created this display also rolled around a pencil radius of only 4 mm, without loss of quality guaranteed up to 1000 twisting. The monitor will be presented and tested at the SID (Society for Information Display) in Seattle which began on 24th of this month and will end today with his presentation of this screen.

The announcement planned Samsung next week and its impact will eclipse the rest of the innovations that will parade the next day by the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona (MWC). The fair of the year's biggest telecommunications wants to find a vaccine to extend the life of all portable devices , and it looks like that day is just around the corner.
The Compaq EVO N600C battery life is the nightmare that disturbs much of the technology industry and consumer the company will market the patent gold, since the plugs will be as mandatory.
The tension between the giants also floats in the air. Google and Apple go to the brawl, While Nokia and Microsoft veil their weapons to break into a battle of all against all. The Asian manufacturers (Samsung , LG , HTC , Huawei , Sony Ericsson) take the lead in technology , while the old rockers as Motorola and BlackBerry not resigned to assume a secondary role. Never.
The announcement of the eternal A1175 battery which encourage a fair environment is heated , very heated . We are living through turbulent times in which only the most stalwart companies dare to take chest. Amid the difficult environment , telecoms sector feels able to pull the cart in this crisis. Anyone who wants to check on the ground only have to walk in the MWC , where the Fira de Barcelona is erected in the heart of new technology . Is everything ready for the campus becomes a hive of 1300 stands, Where swarm over 50,000 professionals from 180 different countries .

How can I slove this problem?

 

My Macbook Pro battery also died. I have the Unibody MacBook (not pro, before the 13" went pro) and it's a complete dud. I took my Mac to the Genius Bar at my local Apple Store because it was still under warranty and it kept freezing up. When I got there they told me I had 7 days left on the Standard 1 year warranty. So, they said they would fix the problem. I got the computer back, and it is not fixed. In addition, on the menu bar, the A1185 battery icon has an exclamation point. I click it and they drop down says "Service Battery".

It did not say this before I took it to the Apple Store, and it was holding a charge pretty decently (for a 1 year old battery.) So then I call the store back and inform them that the computer is saying "service battery"... The genius tells me that the iBook G4 14 Battery is supposed to hold half of its charge from 1 year of its full capacity, when it was new. Now, why it would just now start to say "service battery" is beyond me. I feel like maybe they made it say that? He also said that sometimes he has heard that the computer will randomly just shut off sometimes with the battery status says "service battery".
Sure enough, about a day later, even with the A1061 battery fully charged, the computer just started shutting off. The weirdest thing is that when I would try to turn it back on, it would start up with the Apple logo and the "DONNNGGG" sound but then immediately, before booting to the login window, shut down. It took me ten power ups for the computer to stay on. This kept happening day after day, so yesterday I just took the Dell Inspiron 9300 battery out, and problem solved, no random shut downs.
My question is, is this normal?? Should I be having to buy a Apple A1078 battery just one year after I purchased the computer? I mean I could understand the battery not holding much of a charge, but just shutting down my computer with NO warning? I'm glad I wasn't working on anything important or I might would have called Apple up and given them a piece of my mind.
Now apparently the main fan near the screen hinge went out (after already being replaced twice) and the bottom piece of aluminum is sometimes unbearable to touch it's so hot as A1008. I mean, should I be watching for my Macbook to just explode soon? lol... I'm thinking I may have gotten a lemon.
