They should just be very simple and have a very thin HD touch screen. With a slid out keyboard, (like the wireless one out already) but has a rechargeable flat batter in it raise up. To recharge you would connect with the new usb plug to the HD touch screen. Memory these days are pretty thin and batteries too so this would still make the HD screen itself keep its thinness.
I don't know about you guys but I think typing on a touchscreen keyboard would take a LOT of getting used to.. If this beautiful creation ever comes, I will be one of the first to purchase one.. I am such a whore when it comes to new technology.. maybe thats why Im broke all the time, haha
Thats what I'm talking about ! If you want to make the lid a potential touch pad Wouldn't turn it down but it really isn't necessary Just make it a functional protective cover with a iphone like touch screen I'm so there ! I'll give my dell 9 to the first person I see on the way to the apple store!
