But once you open it, you realize the screen pops right out of the body. When you hold the screen in your hands it becomes a touch screen tablet. Presto change-o. Yet, it gets better: when the screen is attached to the body of the netbook, it operates as a computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 4GB of RAM, Windows 7 and a 128GB solid state drive. But the screen is outside the body, it operates as an independent tablet computer, complete with a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, a Linux OS, 512MB of RAM and 16GB of flash memory. The 2-for-1 U1 won’t ship to consumers until June, and should sell for about $1,000.

Phone That Shames The Weather Bureau
From Yankodesign Date: Sun 12/27/2009 Tag: Cellphones, Product Design, Technology

I don’t know about your city, but the weather bureau of my hometown is often sniggered at, for their in-accurate predictions. When they say it will rain (like they predicted a couple of days ago) you can be sure it will be bright and sunny. I would like to gift them this “Window Phone”, that makes accurate predictions and even changes its display to reflect the climatic conditions outdoors. Maybe I should keep the phone for myself and bug the bureau with my updates.
