interesting new gadget.
The Morph device can be used as a keyboard, then bent around the wrist and worn as a bracelet.

you forgot to mention "Nokia claimed that the technology will be in mainstream phones by 2015, but that there are technical challenges still to overcome. Chief among these is power, and Nokia is investigating the use of new battery materials."

Why would you want to wear a keyboard as a bracelet?

given the materials used in batteries, i don't think flexible batteries or even tiny chainlinked inflexible ones should be that difficult to produce.
