** end quote [Tony Whitmore]
I like the sound of it, and would have loved to play with one, but the concept
of a unified device failed my requirements big time. Great for carrying around,
but a unified device has one major flaw - it is one device. I have enough
problems when a customer phones me on my mobile and information I need to
access could easily be accessed - from my mobile, but I can't because it is
being a phone at the time! In that case I need a separate laptop or netbook.
When I'm out an about I rarely if ever have access to a spare screen, keyboard
and mouse to attach to, so that side of things is of little use - again a
laptop or netbook is more practical. When in the office I have a desktop PC. I
sometimes consider running just a laptop, but can't quite leave the convenience
and expandability of the desktop at the moment - almost, but not quite,
especially with the state of laptop keyboards and longevity of batteries.
