Default Samsung Promises Slimmest-Ever Phone LCD

http://www.infoworld.com/article/06/11/21/HNsamsungslimmestphone_1.html

"Samsung Electronics has developed what it claims is the thinnest LCD (liquid crystal display) panel, just the thickness of a credit card, designed for use in mobile phones. The screen measures 0.82 millimeters thick and, combined with a new method for attaching the panel to devices, will allow manufacturers to shave between 1.4 mm and 2.4mm off the thickness of their phones, Samsung said."

If they keep this up, soon our phones will be two dimensional! :lol:

Leave the phones the same thickness and add that 1.4 - 2.4mm to the battery.

Spot on!! I would be even happier with my 750v than I already am if it was just slightly thinner, but included a bigger battery.
