The company, Polytron Technologies Inc., comes from Taoyuan, Taiwan. It leads worldwide manufacturer of electronic and optical vision glass. Although it's merely a prototype now, but Polytron promises the transparent cell phone will appear at the end of this year. Let's look and see.

Electric current is carried through transparent wires. (no-wired LED)
A dual-sided multi-touch display in front and back.

The prototype has yet to feature any software or operating system. Which OS is better? Android or iOS? Any ideas of Apps integrate AR (Augmented Reality) into the transparent cell phone? Or integration of Apps with the see-thru Google Glass?

Read the company's website. It's interesting. The tech. was used in air crafts, shows (rear projects), CSI ... Ghirardelli (in SFO http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/oxHk2ZUxMqKbXAK7ULK2GQ) also uses its product in the glass of showcase.

Use your browser as TEXT Editor

If you suddenly want to write something without text editor on your device, try to use WebKit-based browsers: Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.

In the URL line, input:

"data:text/html, <html contenteditable>", then you can edit texts on the page presentation area.

However, the above command make the text area as HTML default, that is copying html strings will be pasted as HTML format. If you want a "pure text" (plain text) editor, use the command.

data:text/html, <textarea></textarea>

The input area is too small! Don't forget write CSS style as you are a good web programmer.

data:text/html, <textarea style='height:90%;width:90%;margin:auto'></textarea>

Now, enjoy your "Programmer-Style" text editor.

I am glad to be a programmer!

NOTE: the edited text can not be saved!
