Intel, Plastic Logic and Canada's Queen's University have collaborated to create a flexible paper-like tablet.

The tablet is based on Plastic Logic's 10.7in flexible touch E Ink display and Intel's Core i5 processor.

A user can use several PaperTabs devices at the same time, and these can interact between them.

According to Roel Vertegaal, a director in Queen's University's human media lab estimates that most computers will look and feel like that within five to ten years.

It's likely that the displays will be full-colour and based on OLED technology.
