PC in your pocket
Developed at IBM Japan: The PC Core System.
Still at the prototype stage, it's a tiny (16 x 8.2 x 2.2cm, 6.4 x 3.3 x 0.9in) PC containing a 1GHz Transmeta CPU, up to 512MB of RAM and a 20 gig hard drive.
The idea is that insteead of carrying a laptop, or storage devices you carry around your whole PC, and simply plug it into available base units as needed. I imagine that base units could also be portable (like a laptop) as welkl as having a more tradititional desktop formfactor – or for that matter, any sort of base unit, like set-top (great for motel rooms) or bedside (small screen with MP3 player alarmclock function) should be viable.
Once your entire operating environment moves with you, the possibilities grow enormously.
