In 3 years Apple will be the first to have done that

no no no - these are all one single machine.

Probably too pricey for a cheapskate like me but I've got a soldering iron. Anyone know how to make one from a Psion 5?

I'm sure there'll be a website along soon that tells you what you need to disable for the Psion to have the feature set of the iPad.

You got one that lasted so long? I'm impressed.

I've got one that still works, the 5mx although the stylus won't stay in plus an Organiser that still works That was the height of technology when I bought it...

Too complicated.

Just have the keyboard part of the 'laptop' as a fancy docking station, all the real tech would be in the detachable touchscreen part.

leave all the tech in the body of the laptop.
When the screen is detached, video and audio are transmitted wirelessly to the touchscreen.
Obviously would only work within a certain range, but it would enable you to detach your laptop screen and pass it around or use it by itself whilst sat on the couch.
You still get all the hardware benefits of a proper computer but without having to lug it around with you heating up your balls

2 of everything to look at pic?

Does that mean it could multi task then cos it can't now

You'd have 2 x OS's in the one product utilising shared photo, e-mail and browser libraries.

When I say 2 x OS's, it's really OS X in the base unit, iPhone OS in the screen.

I just Googled mac book pro and it looks like a laptop. So the screen is detachable? If the iPad could run OSX you wouldn't need anything else. Oh, and SD, USB support etc...

Use your load man, iPad is the replacement screen on the Pro.

I'm over to what's it's house to share some photos but I don't need the whole computer - so you just detach the screen and away you go, it's essentially two system in the one product.

I'd buy it.

Ignore the witty retorts just get building steve cause my cash is festering...

The iPad is not a beast like my pro nor do I want it to be.
