| Toy!
For some reason, I can't help but think that it's just a toy, not unlike a portable DVD player.
The screen is too small to use, and the keyboard is small. Yet the device is too large to slip into a purse or on a belt-clip. The smaller screen is only tolerable if the device is small (like a PDA or Smart-phone).
I can't imagine the use for such a device. I sure can't imagine using the Internet on such a small screen in this day and age. The last time I used the Internet on such a small screen was back in 1988 or 1989, on my father's 8088 (5MHz), which was attached to a 1200 baud modem and a 5" B&W monitor. Well, it might have been a BBS. It's been a long time.
Then again, I don't have a laptop at all. I have never felt a need to take a PC with me in public. |
I could see taking something like this out in my work truck with my usb GPS instead of my bulkier more expensive laptops.
