I guess that depends on whether you want to walk about with it in your hand or have it sitting on a table. I have to agree that having a cable hanging out of the back all the time is horrible and it would need modifying to support a rechargable battery and docking station to be a really good solution. I could also see it being mounted in a wall or in a kitchen cabinet. Is it a dealbreaker? I'm not sure, I think I could live with the shortcomings at that price and it could be fun to hack around.
