Core77

iPhone ShmiPhone--Nokia filed a patent on Christmas Day for a new type of communication device, one with a rather unusual form factor: It folds out into four distinct parts. Two of the parts act as a screen, apparently straddled by some type of flexible screen, while the other two serve as a keyboard.

There's no word on when this device would come out or what, specifically, it would do, but it will be interesting to see if Nokia can seize the design high ground and spawn its own wake of copycats.
