| This thing is SO hot. I would buy one for close to twice the price.
One thing I haven't seen or read about: Laptop graphics, like
desktop, usually require a mouse or some equivalent point/click input
mechanism. There isn't any such thing visible in these pictures. What
looks like a trackpad is shown as a handwritten input device, but
maybe it could function as a trackpad. I suppose some keyboard
buttons could be mapped to the "mouse" buttons. Anyone know about
this?
Actual specs on this gadget don't seem to be visible anywhere. Google
find a lots of press-release sort of pages, but no specs. Anyone know
where to find actual information?
