Modbook?

Do you think it's a good idea to order a "Modbook", which is a macbook with a built-in touch screen?
Here is the Apple Insider link: http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=2386
Just wanted to put a check here....

If you do a lot of graphics this looks cool to me. dunno what you'd do if it went wrong tho. whose guarantee would it be covered by?
Personally I'd wait until a touchscreen mac comes out, but if you need a solution now, this looks good. no keyboard tho...

has an on screen keyboard, wonder if you could maximize it and use your fingers?

I think thats what is stopping Apple making a Touch Screen Mac...I think Leopard will see an offical "touch screen mac" of some type -- either a duel-screen set up laptop, on screen being a keyboard other computer screen (and both can be touch sensitive -- just one is the main keyboard).
At any case, it would be cool...wouldn't it?

1) If you do a lot of graphics, you should just get a Mac Pro or whatever and a wacom screen.
2) OWC provides a warranty, so the modbook is covered.
I think it's a decent piece of work. I think a tablet would have been nice to have when I was in college, since a keyboard isn't really a flexible enough tool for note-taking, and paper just gets to be too much hassle, at least in science and engineering. Every year the curricula get more and more compressed as new technologies emerge, and in my opinion a tablet would be very good for SciEng students.
