I just read an article about just that last night. Apple was just awarded 
patents for a foldable device but the device would be iPad sized and not phone 
sized. It looks as if they are looking to possibly reinvent the digital book as 
it were. It kind of sounds like a newspaper like device that can be opened like 
a book/newspaper. This doesn’t mean it will be coming to the market anytime 
soon though.

I read it on Patently Apple.
