everything is widescreen if you adjust the height (and put controls
there).

I think one issue is that it is not widescreen. If it about
consuming media
shouldn't the device be wide screen for movies.
Is it a good user experiance watching a movie on a narrow screen?
Also I can not just plug in devices into the USB.
And there is the issue of DRM. Especially with apple controlling
application
release which can take weeks. You can not role out a bug fix, or a
improved
feature. Everybody is talking about continuous improvements as the way
forward. Apple place large block on this by thier approval basis.

How often have you dropped your iPhone? I personally haven't, but
have many
friends that have gone through 2, 3, even 4 - a drop from 4' is
deadly.
I won't denigrate the feature set because I am not the intended
audience.
For business travel, I need all my design apps and I need them
multimodal,
not sovereign - and multitasking is a must. I also can't not have
skype for
conference calls on the road - so it's not a replacement for my
mbp: it
would just be another device that serves no purpose for which I
already have
tools. For the intended audience, it may or may not be great - I
have no
idea the personas this is designed and built for - but certainly
not a
traveling ux practitioner.
Cheers,

I assume the durability of it will be better tha the iPhone screen
especially as, like other laptops/netbooks it doesn't have a fold
down screen to protect it.
Graham,
I don't understand. The durability of the iPhone screen is superb.
I've
been using iPhones (original and 3Gs) since its original release
without any
kind of case or screen protector, and have not had a single scratch.

You could design a process to catch
everything, but then you're overprocessing.
You kill creativity. You kill productivity.
By definition, a culture like ours that
drives innovation is managed chaos.
