That's still too big for me (while being too small to effectively type on). My G1 is really close, and except for lacking a telephony component, the OQO is nearly spot on.

Checking out the newer OQO (and the dock) it is as close as you can get currently to an all in one device.

What would be perfect is something just like form factor wise it but with the possibility of some sort of fold out/flexible screen (maybe a a built in laser projector?)

The next 5 years are going to be very exciting in the mobile computer market.

Yeah, a foldable e-paper screen (already on a Motorola phone, I think) would be close to ideal. The OQO is much more interesting than I remember it being when I last heard about it. Maybe my needs have changed, or maybe the initial version wasn't so great.

A pocket projector and some of these http://www.senseboard.com/

Best new product of 2001? They're not quite Duke Nukem Forever yet, but small powerful battery powered PDAs are here, pocket projectors are here to sidestep the small screen/low res problem, all we need are good small portable keyboard-replacements, and where's senseboard's ideal looking product? Floating about in Vapourware unfinished probably abandoned land, that's where. :(
