Looks very interesting, but fragile, like something that should stay in a display case. And I wonder if it's going to necessitate the use of an external keyboard.

Definitely agree. It is a very interesting concept, but it looks to nice to actually use!
 
I like the look of that.
I also like the look of the keyboard, I used one of the macbook trackpads a few days ago and would love to use one of those alongside the keyboard instead of a mouse.
 
The mock-up looks very Kindle inspired. What ever the thing is, I sense great anticipation from all corners.

Really?

I wouldn't say it looked that fragile.

Love the overall look, though. Not so sure about that external keyboard, I doubt that would come with it.

Apple are all about simplicity, not plugging bits and bobs in.
 
Ok, not really iPhone related but I just had to post this.

I didn't have time to post the pictures so if someone would like to help I'd appreciate it.

That's a nice lookin bluetooth stereo headset too!

:D

I like this - and the optional keyboard for desktop use would be perfect for me. Let's see what happens - if it's a full OSX device coupled with iPhone-type connectivity (i.e. it can make phone calls) then I'd probably go for it as long as it comes in at significantly under a MacBook price. TBH it's so like a Padd I'm feeling all ST-nerdy:eek:
 
That is by far the sexiest thing I have ever seen. I would sell everything I own for one of those. Not even kidding. Wow.
 
If all dimensions were proportional, I'm just wondering the size of the Home button.

It should weigh in at just slightly larger than my eye. Quite a fearsome prospect, that.

The Home Button seems to be slightly smaller than one of the keys on the keyboard, meaning it's only slightly larger than the existing button on the iPhone or iPod.
 
If that thing can make a phone call, it'ld be a priceless sight to see someone bringing it to his ear...or bringing his ear to that thing...

Maybe if it allowed bluetooth tethering from your iPhone and enabled you to make calls, that would be hot and obviously lower it's price point and not burden people with a at&t contract if that don't want to use that functionality.
