Looks sweet! I wonder how long that screen will survive daily use on the outside though.

Make it removable and I will put it on the front of my desktop!

Good, an external display that's only on when the laptop's in the bag. Just what the doctor ordered.

I second Cthippo's remark.

Looks nice but like Snafu says, it aint going to look nice scratched to pieces from daily use. Top of my laptop has alot of scratches on it.

Looks nice, but i don't really see the point, may as well just get a tablet PC.

This is essentially a scaled-up version of the screens you get on the back of a clamshell phone that tell you the time, whose calling, etc, correct?
