its actually licensed by apple, sorta. its not a warranty killing mod. apple approves these

Apple did approve it. I believe this started in late 2006. Apple filed against them but they reasoned out because Axitron (Yes thats it its called the Axitron Modbook i beleive) said that its just a modified MacBook Pro, which it is, sooo technically its still Apple hardware, and now they are both happy! smile

Eh, seems kinda useless, is it really that likely that people will be designing on the train?

Using the virtual keyboard would be a pain too, would be good if the could use a similar system to the iPhone.

My idea for apple (I have loads I don't know why, I dont like the company lol) Is the get a macbook, and it has a sort of slider at the edges of the screen bit, so you can fold it down and pull it to you, (like a slide out keyboard thing on a table) So the back of the screen is over the keys, ect and the screen is showing up, while it remains flat and then you can draw on the screen with a stylus.

Did anyone understand any of that? lol.

Yeh. but the reason they probably won't do it is because it's to expensive for the features it gives you.

The fact that Apple licensed someone else to produce it means they probably won't make an official one any time soon.

I think the iPhone is their touch-computer for now (gotta get one -drools-).
