		<description>" Microsoft is full of people who are deeply passionate about technology and the opportunity to go do great things for people"

I'd prefer Microsoft not to 'do great things for people' but 'enable people to do great things'

;-)

		<description>one other thing..
I suppose Apple could make a little handheld thingy...

It could be done quite nicely actually.

1) take powerbook
2) Put in chip which can scale up and down consideraby to conserve power
3) Ditch CD drive
3 b) Ditch the HD and put 4GB of RAM in them? (can use ipod if required)

4) Stick wireless on them and allow any mac with a CD drive and airport to to 'act' as a cd drive when in that location.
5) Instead of a keyboard, have a fold-out clear lcd touch display which you type from the UNDERSIDE as you hold the device

6) touchscreen/ thumb thingy for mouse control
7) tactile feedback, of course

8) Give the things, like 40 hours of battery life and let them be charged by USB or Firewire.

9) Reflective LCD screen instead of backlit?


The question is, what is this going to be used for?

I would probably want a fold out screen.</description>
