NetBook News was on the scene at FDP 2010 to take a look at the new AMOLED displays that Samsung had on hand, including a 7″ AMOLED display that will likely show up in a Samsung Tablet next year, perhaps the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.

The team also picked up on two interesting notebook style display configurations including a dual display clamshell that used two 4.5″ AMOLED displays in a portable form factor shown above and a transparent AMOLED built into a 14″ netbook.

The 14″ notebook prototype had an interesting see-thru display, though it was limited by a small 960 x 540 resolution. Unfortunately Netbook News wasn’t able to see what it looked like with the transparency turned off, which is how we expect many users would end up using the device on a day to day basis.

Samsung also showed off several plastic displays that are, “super thin” and “unbreakable” according to a Samsung rep who spoke to Netbook News. Unfortunately as they point out we’ll have to wait for battery life to catch up before we see these radically thin laptops enter the market.

In addition to these netbook style and notebook style AMOLED displays the team also caught a bunch of bendable and foldable Samsung displays on video which you can see below.

Well, fear not, The good folks at Into Windows not only compiled a list of 20 useful Windows 7 gadgets — but also created a sexy looking Glass Gadgets Pack for Windows 7 and Vista.

Imagine what it would look like to use these gadgets on the Samsung transparent notebook display!

The Glass Gadgets pack adds 14 transparent gadgets to your desktop cluttering choices including transparent replacements for many of the standard Windows 7 gadgets.

In all you’ll find the following Windows 7 transparent gadgets:

• Calendar
• Clock
• System control (shutdown, restart & lock)
• CPU meter
• Email
• Net bar (monitors download/upload speed)
• Net usage stats
• Notes colour
• Notes white
• Drive info
• Radio
• Recycle Bin
• Stats
• Weather

Installing a new gadget is as easy as downloading the files from Into Windows, unzipping the file and then double clicking on the gadget you want.

I’ve never been a big user of gadgets but I may have to install this pack and make use of several of these gadgets, like Net bar and net usage states, since they look a nicer than the original gadgets.

I have to agree with Brad that the transparent display is cool, but would work better in other applications, he mentions GPS displayed on a windshield or movies shown on windows as one use but I have a better idea.

Like the Samsung transparent Mp3 player allows you to control the device without blocking your view of the small screen a transparent touchscreen would be a cool, and useful, addition to a slate device like the iPad. If the backside had touch technology you could access on screen controls without the need to block your view of the screen and thus your game.
