This is a future mobile phone concept developed at Inventables. The concept was inspired by the e-paper developed by Mag-Ink and the Popout Map.

ESATO NEWS

The map uses origami paper folding technique to expand and collapse automatically as it is opened and closed. This concept addresses the need for larger displays on mobile phones without sacrificing a small form factor.

I'm waiting for someone innovative like HTC to take this on and produce a windows mobile phone with this technology, or perhaps oled which is also bendable!

A prototype does exist. I have seen video of it. The picture looked like an etcha-sketch picture.
