That is so awesome how technology is going these days. I can't wait to see what we make in the next 50 years!

Id imagine it would be difficult to look at porn on something so small as that contraption.

just not long enough

It's just one small step in this direction for technology. A parallel can be made: Remember those ab machines? The torso-track was the first one out there, but you could only go foward and back. Then the competition came out with the Torso-tiger which let you go left and right and every other direction. Like the article said in the last paragraph, I wouldn't put my name on the waiting list at this second. I'd definately wait to see what the competition does in the near future.

what's the point of having a computer that small?

All it can entail successfully is reading and keeping track of your schedule.. oh yeah, and e-mail.

It wouldn't be prime for games, looking at any type of pictures..(including porn, sorry 98% of internet users.).. even software like adobe wouldn't be useful in it.

It might be good for aim/aol also.

But it'd be basically useless, or identical to a fucking PDA..

Hell, even a lot of PDA's have a camera, does that scrawny thing have a camera, or something that can take video?



I'd prefer a 300$ PDA, than a tiny sony vaio. I got a 1000$ sony vaio and I hate it.

These mini things will probably be around 800$ when they first come out. Then people will realize they'll become absolete. It probably has a keyboard attachment. When someone finds a way to make a tiny portable accessable USEABLE keyboard, then we'll see something awesome.
