Looks like the PC-clip board (I think thats what they called it) Microsoft is working
on! Works like a (Wireless)PDA and with a touch screen and also along the lines of the
Vaio to include a camera, I think it was to become REAL moble computing as Gates put

for file transfer. OS is an upgraded verson of Windows CE.
Then again I could be wrong!

I'd like to know what you listers think of the photo. There's no input
device seen and there seems to be a small camera at the top of the device. Like it
says on the page, the "camera" could actually be a stylus holder reminiscent of the
Newton -- which would answer the "no imput device?" question.
