Well, it's not a big secret - I spend time in Fraunhofer labs, and we get a lot of stuff that is paid for by companies doing research. There's good stuff out there, but it's just not yet commercially viable. But the technology is there. I ran Windows XP for years on a 400mhz PC just fine. Mobile processors may be slow, but they are fine for the uses that they will be used for in the near future - email, chat, social networking and the iPhonesque games. Also, one can switch between dedicated simpler processors to more complex processors if battery life were an issue. Technologically, I see very little problems with the concept. The problem lies more with distribution, acceptance and all the business interests whom it does not favor to have this out there. Growth will come in that people will choose to purchase mobile devices that double as a laptop, instead of purchasing a new laptop. So you are right in that it won't bring in new people, it will just cause a movement from one device to the other.
