If you were to take the keyboard away and insure screen touch, we would have another runner for the iSlates/GTablet war. Still. If this had a good enough browser, then I can see this completing with the netbooks.  So add a new one to the lexicon.  SmartBook.  Gezz.. If this had an full on OS, it would be a palmtop no?

Share and Enjoy !
