Sony Ericsson flip phone patent

by Patrick Altoft on July 11, 2006

An interesting patent has been filed by Sony Ericsson relating to a clam shell phone with a swivel screen that can be flipped over to be viewed when the phone is open or closed.

Most high end clam shell phones have 2 screens, a small one on the outside and a larger screen on the inside. This device would mean manufacturers would be able to remove the smaller screen and save space and costs maybe resulting in some other features being added.
