In a world where print is slowly dying out and anything and everything is read via the Internet, there have been innovative design concepts which combine the two mediums such as the Rolltop created by Orkin Designs. The concept device rolls up like a traditional newspaper but when unfurled, it becomes a touchscreen OLED display. Yes, a touchscreen that can be rolled up like a newspaper. What can’t be done with technology nowadays? There’s been talk about this compact device for a while but the Rolltop is the first to make it a reality. The device can serve as both a 13-inch laptop and a 17-inch dedicated computer display, your choice. The unit also comes with a detachable hub with a power adapter, a stylus, and a couple of USB ports.What will they come up with next?
