Not long to wait now for the Oqo (http://www.oqo.com/), if you want a
real PC you can hold in your hand - release date September 2003. (Yes, I
know of the Antelope, Tiqit, Zaurii etc and, yes, the lack of a keyboard
or mouse is actually an advantage - think Intel's portable personal
server - http://www.intel.com/research/exploratory/personal_server.htm).
Perhaps the OQO isn't vapourware, after all! (See Wired
http://www.wired.com/news/culture/0,1284,57023-2,00.html). There's a
nice picture of an OQO prototype at http://www.danionics.com/sw1226.asp.
