Well the picture above is not an actual product but an artistic concept pic done for a gaming website. I was just stating my admiration for the design.
I always thought that a having such a large screen and not using it as touch screen would be a complete waste of space. If I were the designer I would have used the screen as a touch screen and then created somekind of touch screen keyboard.
This would allow you to have a smaller machine while maintaining full function. Of course the main problem then is that if there were to be some kind of software failure, then you wouldn't be able to fix it until you get back home and hook it up to a keyboard(bluetooth/usb). But then again not that many people would have the technical know how to fix it themselves.
I'm just stating my disgust on the pandora's design. While it does have its subtle charm it fades away quickly.
