Well, it looks like it weighs 9 pounds, has a 15" screen and is unusually thick and long. Because if it was only a few inches, it would not have enough room to run OS X, considering the RAM and battery requirement at the very least.

On the other hand a 9 pounder like the one in the picture could be used as a defensive weapon in case you were attacked by an outlaw gang of arthritic penguins.

Oh wait! I get it. Steve spoke about it at the MWSF. It takes my idea of some PDA functionality in an iPod and combined it with the NEW iPod "it's a 10 pounder with an 8" screen!". Gotcha :)

Yeah, but some want to shoehorn a fullblown OS X into a PDA size gizmo. I don't know how they'd like to do it, unless there's access to some super secret technology soon. Otherwise just the memory and battery requirements alone would kill this instantly. Now that you say PPC Mobile, OK, though that's a differnent discussion. I still don't believe it'll ever happen, or should happen for that matter. All IMHO.
