Sounds good. The Tablet is one of those potential growth markets that Apple can dominate if they figure out how to do it right. UMPCs are another. I tried out the Sony recently and it's not half bad but not quite there yet.
A flash based merom tablet with a docking station with a single PCIe slot, a regular HDD and optical drive would be ideal for me. Slim enough to take to meetings, powerful enough when docked to do some real work. I can live with a GMA when mobile and when docked I can use the screen to hold Entourage and other misc screens while I work on the primary display.

we're only in denial. Its only a matter of time before we figure out that cell keyboards will give the lost meaning to our lives...i begining to believe...it is the one!

Thanks for the support. I'm really beginning to believe that I'm making our life better by designing the next generation of computers.

Perhaps because it isn't your sig but your answer to whatever small form factor topic that appears. Without the link your last 1 line post makes almost no sense.
If it were just your sig I think most folks would ignore it as they do most sigs with links. Which is probably why you don't use it as a sig...

Do you notice that I don't disagree with you all the time? I'd say 90% of your comments I read, agree and move on. About the only place I've been a real ass is on that never ending xMac thread and frankly that's just for amusement purposes.

It just seems as though you do, because you often get so worked up about it, and accuse me of things I'm (often) not guily of. Like your mocking of me in the other thread, which I've just responded to.

Plus full screen video. A cell computer.

I've warned you before about posting that link Gene... enough already!
We get it.... you designed a ugly phone-type thing and want everyone to look at it... We've seen it... stop posting it...
