I personally think the industry is better off making extremely light, extremely portable yet full-function laptops/tablets, then give them an external display such as the one Vista will support.

The industry hasn't reached that point yet. If they tried to do that now, all the features would be sub-standard, poorly implemented, and expensive. Look at the mp3 capable cell phones right now. They're high priced, have limited formats, and sound like s***. I'd wait a few more years before DAPs start merging with tablets and the like.
You're probably right, but I still think it should be done eventually. I understand your point; for example, they finally are starting to get tablets right after years of weak, heavy, underpowered machines.

A laptop/tablet won't fit in my pocket
true, and sometimes heavy is a good thing, my laptop is just about the heaviest one out there, but I have dropped it I don't know how many times and there is no damage to it (but then again, it is a Toughbook).

Yeah, but it fits in your bag. and I carry mine everywhere.
Sorry, but a pocket is more convinient, lighter, and harder to lose than a bag (aka, "purse")
I do the same with mine, AC adapter (DC if I'm going on a trip), network cards, second battery, second HD (Linux), crossover cable, dongles, fuses, floppy or cd drive (whichever is not in comp), and the silverlink. Usually I have the iPod USB adapter in there also

It's a messenger bag, and I also keep my chargers, headphones, and GraphLink cable in it. 
Yeah, i throw my Creative MuVo in my pocket along with my keys and headphones - and it isn't even obvious that I have them in my pocket.

Yeah, that reminds me, I need to get a USB optical drive for my compy. It's uberthin and uberlight, at the expense of internal optical. So far that hasn't been a problem though. Register to Join the Conversation
