Not sure. As an artist (graphic design, composer, audio engineer), I see no use in it at all. I understand I'm not the user they're going for, but I still have a hard time seeing how this device would appeal to anyone who already owns both a laptop and a cell phone.<p>I try to get out of my office and studio as often as possible, in order to help the creative juices continue to flow by experiencing new things. If I were using this phone and wanted to go to Starbucks to work for a day, I'd be required to bring a monitor, keyboard, and mouse with me. If that was the case, why wouldn't I just bring my laptop instead?<p>I'm not trying to piss anyone off or anything, I just find it genuinely funny how terrible of an idea this phone was. If you're going to be spending $750 on a cell phone, why not just spend a little more and buy a MacBook Air and dual boot?
I'd say the (promised) ability to be used both as a phone _and_ a desktop computer, depending on what you plug into it. Sounds pretty good to me: take your Android-ish phone (of reasonable size and weight) anywhere, connect it to a full-size keyboard and screen - voila, a full-featured, not-underpowered-like-a-netbook computer running Ubuntu!<p>I have yet to see this in any other device on the market; this alone would be sufficient for me.
