>Check out the smudges
Oleo-phobic screens need to become more prevalent IMHO.
I liked the basic idea, snap the screen into a notebook for heavier work. But this looks like a cheap tech demo. I see no reason the major innards couldn't be in the screen, so there would be no OS switcharoo (I wasn't impressed by that after thinking about the lack of utility), put another battery and a hard drive in the keyboard and it could just be recognized as a few usb devices...
I was also expecting sub-$800 price point.
>Check out the REALLY slow framerate with a simple resize operation
This is a point lots of people are making I think. The slowness is not excusable...
