What about a thick, 7 or 6 inch laptop with a foldable keyboard ? No GSM, just wifi and USB ? Many programmers would like one.

- gambiting 11y agoHow would that even look like? Like an MS Surface? What do you mean by "foldable keyboard"?
- jokoon 11y agoa laptop, essentially. I don't like the surface because you can remove the keyboard, it feels fragile. Also I'd prefer something much thicker to have more battery and a more powerful CPU. Thicker means easier to dissipate heat since air can circulate more.
- Kurtz79 11y agoI think Surface can mount up to Core i7 processors ? Something much thicker would kind of defeat the purpose of being portable. I believe what we have today is limited more by physical constraints (i.e. I can´t see myself writing code on a 7/8 screen, or typing comfortably on a keyboard that small) than actual technology. Already, both on the Surface or a small footprint laptop (say, 11' Macbook Air), for me the experience is way worse than what you can get on a slightly larger laptop (13').
