It won't be the courier. That baby was aborted. But hopefully it shares some DNA!

PixelSense is amazing! But hell, just look at the handwriting recognition in Windows Vista/7! I have THE WORST handwriting, and after setting up the recognition on my TouchSmart, it works at like 99%!

Yes, beautifuly written. Wish I read it before I replied!!

True, but still. It may come in handy. I mean, the iPad has docking stations. It is something people will want. I am just after a true notebook replacement.

Apple stopped thinking outside of the box a while ago. Look at any of their recent updates for confirmation. Out of the box = risking killing the golden goose.

Well, from wing and appearant door placement, it would likely need specialized on-loading equipment.

As far as pilot headaches, no HUD or nav system could adequately deal with the bitch that would be taxi-ing this thing on a busy runway!

So then, this article is about desktop OS's? If the chips are used on Android devices, then at least they are providing some support for Lynux. So I will tweak my original comment:

"No docking solutions, no bloatware, no stylus. Just Word and Excel and PowerPoint. That's it. You're done."

If, when I was younger, my Dad's idea of a perfect Father's Day was to go to the Lego store and buy a whole bunch of shit, then sit and build them with me, I'd be a lot less screwed up than I am now!

I would assume (from the looks of it) it would take up two terminals?

I shat myself earlier in the day as my mind wandered. Microsoft has been sneakily trying to revive the MediaCenter PC idea through the XBox, and this would just extend it to mobile devices. If they end up adding PVR to the 720 as rumored, I'll end up in the ER with a persistant erection. Let's just hope that they…

Wait - we are talking mobile here? As far as Desktop OS's go, Linux IS a niche.

I think it's less about IP and more straight cost/benefit. To develop for Linux would take a substantial amount of money with very very little payoff. They aren't going to see their bottom line shoot up because niche customers finally might buy their hardware.

But Linux IS a niche!

Yes, fondly. God that thing was just the perfect tablet for me. Actually meant to replace paper and not be a little portable tv. My heart sinks as I think of what could have been...

A representative for Apple said the following, "You are using it wrong."

"If you thought Apple squeezes all those dollars out of your based"

Whoever came up with the title to this post is either the biggest EE nerd on the planet, or the smartest blogger to ever live.

Doing the same goddamn thing tomorrow! I'm going to Lowes for the wood though. They have some beautiful red oak I've been wanting to play with.
