Just thinking about it gives me eyestrain, a terrible headache and possibly tangled eyes.

OLED makes sense. OLED requires no back-lighting, like current LCD displays do. OLED is therefore compact, reducing the form factor. OLED uses far less power, extending battery life. OLED requires no borders, so it will truly be edge-to-edge, increasing the display width to match the keyboard width.

Samsung's product is rumoured to cost an extra $2,000 over an equivalent laptop with an LCD display. Production is low, demand is high and marginal production costs are very high. Sony is working on production technology that may reduce costs.

As for this see-through business: it is useless gimickry.

this will be an obvious dud. sure, it has some gee-whiz factor, but at the end of the day, you want to do some work... and that won’t cut it.

meanwhile, where are all the people to bash it, like they bashed the ipad?

It’s a nice proof of concept product. I see many future, very practical, uses for it. Being marketed as a laptop screen doesn’t seem to be one of them.
