A Sytlish Tablet

.. for those that that don't think the netbook are sexy enough. My guess at salient points of the netbook like spec with;

- slim, non-swappable battery

- SSD

- 10" multi touch screen 1024x800

- ultra low profile charging dock so tablet is e-picture frame (portrait or landscape) on coffee table. Stream pictures from MobileMe gallery

- on screen keyboard. use BT keyboard and stand if you need to type.

- HW H.264 level 3.1 decode. Got to do standard def PROGRESSIVE video or better.

- Wifi..

having spec'd one for my start-up in E-O-2007 [RedEmbedded.com]
