    Looks pretty neat! However, is it a practical alternative to a conventional laptop or iPad?

    I'd be a bit concerned about those plastic hinges/ closing latch failing and making me have to put elastic bands around it, but as I haven't seen it in the flesh that may be an unfair criticism.

    If it's super lightweight then maybe it's a good alternative approach.

    I really loved the concept!!!!! 

    And I think it could go on production!!!! 

    Lucky the one who will introduce it

    Best regards

    Awesome! I'd be willing to bet that if it makes it to production, those hinges wouldn't be regular plastic but a tough composite.

    It doesn't seem to have a B&O "vibe" but that doesn't matter - it'd be so cool if Asus, Sony or Apple would produce it...

    Seems awfully like a solution looking for a problem to meHuh?

    I wonder how many folk would use it as a lappy in the comfort of their own living room (read - where no one was watching)Hmm

    Seems rather fragile. It also looks like this product is trying to be three other products: a laptop, a tablet computer and a screen. Nice enough from a conceptual point of view, but I can't see the point...

    And you can rule out the laptop - that full size touch keyboard will be totally unusable (and probably unimplementable with current tech). Probably fine for 1 or 2 finger hunt'n'peck, but...

    I'm wondering which of those segment houses the hard-drive...or has Apple once again sold us on a new paradigm for 'essentiality', and isn't that one of B&O's core concepts?
