What would be cool is if it had a small projector built in to project the screen on to a surface so it could act independently.

Wow, Ricky, that's exactly what I thought as I was reading the article! A small lcd projector would be nifty. And, a usb camera that has one of those stiff/memory-type cords so it wouldn't need a tripod...

Would be nice if keyboard layouts different than English (my choice would be Hungarian) would be available.

I agree with Ricky and Jeremy - if it had a projector built in, it'd be great! Considering PICO projectors are so small, I could see them tacking on a projector and it wouldn't lose much in the way of its form. It would definitely get my money at that point!

Gotta love that chocolate keyboard, a big step up from the old Chiclet style. Looks like a nice product, though.

A laptop without a top, no?

Too many wires.

How would I go about connecting this wirelessly to my 52" LCD TV?

I'm not at all sure what I'd want this for. Android is a poor choice for such a package.
An Intel or AMD box similar to this with a detachable display would catch my interest. x64 internals a must. Don't need the display to work if detached. HDMI would take over in that case. Needs to be able to run Windows 7 and have a Chrome OS virtual machine. A switch to determine which takes the screen at startup. Drop the numeric keypad.
I'll pledge for that in a heartbeat if someone does it and I know a huge market that I could sell it into if it was priced so that a reseller could make a profit.

I do agree with Fairly Reasoner. First thing that came to mind was "take generic laptop, chop off screen" And why the Android OS? Surely other Linux distros would be nicer. Android needs to stay put in a phone.
Personally I've always been fond of the silent and trendy keyboard/mouse/large monitor in one room fibre linked through wall to overclocked server (sounds like a jet, has its own air conditioner, ugly big things with lots of cables) in the other room.
In summary everyone has their idea of blending the beauty and beast. I just fail to see how this will fit into the mainstream.
