Anyone after a laptop replacement should consider the Asus eeePc.
It's Linux based, cheap (£220 UKP) small and fairly rugged.
Hey, don't discount the NEO1973+Apple Wireless Keyboard idea, also.
Its a very neat package, and while it is two things to carry around,
its two very nice things

Are you really-really sure you want to run those exact applications on an
embedded device with 128MB RAM
I'm well aware that the input side of things is not addressed yet,
but I think we can explore the video side without having to wait
for a solution on the input side. It will come soon enough, I'm
sure. Especially once we start showing what we can do on the output
side.
Bluetooth input

I think the two big killer apps are laptop replacement and watching
video. But that's going to require hardware acceleration.

I really like your idea. I also think that GTA02 will have enough
power for a small notebook-replacement for a bit hacking, writing
or something like this.
Up until my catastrophic u-boot and debug board failure (grr..) I had
been using my GTA01 for the last couple of weeks just fine as a

The laptop form factor forces poor ergonomics. I always bring a
keyboard with me when I travel so that I can have the screen up high and
the keyboard down low. So for me the built-in keyboard is just

No bluetooth. No DVI out. Doesn't fit in your pocket, unless you
have a really big pocket.
I'd like to explore adding a head mounted display to the Neo, like the
i-glasses PC/SVGA Head Mounted Display at about $700. Would require an
off-board SVGA controller, which could be prototyped with a USB SVGA
controller, assuming Linux drivers can be found.
Thoughts?

If the lens would be mounted correctly I think this would be really cool.
On software-side this could be done with using a new profile (like:

Please let me bounce an idea off the list...
Given that the Neo1973 has similar processing power and screen
resolution to what desktop machines had not too long ago, I think it
would be cool if the user interface had a 'mode' where the Neo could
work as a laptop replacement.
I imagine a kit the
But the GTA02 is 400 MHz.
I've got a 650 MHz laptop at home that runs Windows XP just fine.
That's over 7 years old. I think the 400 MHz processor could handle a
lot of the simple apps I'd want while on the move. I plan to use the
GTA02 much as Erland describes (minus the lens).
