About that [3]: the first thing I thought is that Apple must have some innovative idea about the ergonomics of a touchscreen on such a device.

A laptop that supported desk accessary (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desk_Accessory)/Side kick (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SideKick)-like use of iOS apps would be a way to lure existing iOS users to such a device.

And for naming: the OS would be Mac OS X Singapura :-)

Just thinking out loud: How about a device like the Nintendo DS (normal screen above, touch screen below) scaled up to a normal laptop size?
