Re: Solu - A new breed of computer
I totally agree, and understand that point. We discussed the various types of form factors a lot internally, and there are plusses and minuses to them all. Now if you think longer term, consider that...

Re: Solu - A new breed of computer
Additionally ChromeOS actually has quite a bad UX, being essentially nothing more than a web browser with tabs. It also works poorly offline.

I understand your argument, definitely. I'm a software guy myself, and have not previously built hardware or hardware companies. However, this time we felt we had to do it. As mentioned, a mere Solu...

For the record, this is not true on iOS. Doing all of that will cause no problems with it. I have a large amount of appreciation for the N9, but iOS gets stepped on way, way too much on this forum....
