Doesn't dropbox and other online storage solutions already do this? and dongle free i might add.

the microsd slot sounds good, but I'll keep dreaming. feature creep anyone?

if he's typing like that, might as well use the iphone keyboard. I would use a BT keyboard with actual keys. The mouse is a nice idea, but defeats the purpose on such a small screen.

I envision a portable workstation that consists of a BT keyboard, BT mouse, and a pico projector (1024x768). Using the iphone's 3g and logmein, I would be a happy traveler.

@yulebellow that's because you were trying to access it on your iPhone.

drool. want.

but is it me, or does the video look like a late-90's version of a bad lcd? color's all off, looks drab and screen is tiny.

glad i didn't pull the trigger on a kindle. or kindle 2. or kindle dx

also...pixel qi....where are u?

i'm still waiting for the showwx laser one...

all these 1st gen projectors are getting a little long in the tooth. where's the next gen? dell's mini projector is nice, but just not quite there yet....

the claws are coming out! but i agree. switch to a mac.

and then install windows 7 on it.

wow. that's pretty damn cool. too bad they're ugly. :( but hey 1st attempt right?

bought this on dealextreme a while back. i totally recommend it. uses 2 aa or usb connection for power. it is really loud for the size. works great with my iphone. also has its own volume buttons.

me!

It looks like it can make calls too? WTF? an e-reader phone? Seems like a cool idea though....

Some other options -

-Put a thumbpad where the buttons are so you can actually type out full messages.
-Leave the phone part completely out, and have it tether to a phone via bluetooth for the same Kindle online features.
-Leave the phone part completely out, and have it tether to a phone via bluetooth to act as a giant external display/ebook reader passing the image through the phone (ala RedFly - WindowsMobile)

This would also make it a good amount cheaper, since you don't need an EVDO modem (ala $40 kindle part) and you don't need extra service. They just need to make the software compatible.

I can dream, can't I?
