Re: Thinkpad 701C
Well, technology moved a *little* too fast. With the bigger screens of
today, and (as Dean Cashen noted on CSL) even better ones on the horizon, the
need for an expanding keyboard was no longer a priority."
Not just low priority, but no priority, the demand for 10.4" screen machines
is falling off VERY rapidly, what IBM found early on is that most people
want larger screens, and although light weight is important, small size
is not so important (the 560 weighs the same as the 701).
Now what I would like to see is to use the folding keyboard technology on
larger form machines to give a proper full PC keyboard, that would be
nice!
