Sharp intros 5in ARM-based netbook

FAIL

Minor tweaks

I would love to get this, but it *must* be able to play my Laserdisc collection.

Like many of the people posting on here, I also have a couple of other requests:

- The screen got bigger, with higher res.

- More memory - 64GB would be nice

- It halved in size

- Built in Bluetooth, WiFi, 3G, GPS, optical audio output and SCART

- Bundled unlimited 3G data contract

- Webcam - perhaps one of those 3D ones

Oh... the price would need to drop below a tenner

I know a few naysayers will say I'm being demanding, but my old Psion 3 managed all that.

So... come on Samsung - back to the drawing board!

Multitaskers: suckers for irrelevancy, easily distracted

@jake/typical clueless academics

So you're saying that *only* multitaskers are good at all those skills/tasks?

(Diagnosing mechanical equipment problems (including the likes of HVAC, plumbing, electrical, internal combustion engines, and wheeled vehicle suspension)? Animal training? Cooking? Hunting? Fishing? Farming? Weather forecasting?)

I also hope that anonymous coward's bizarre post was a joke.

(And Paris, because there are a load of different ways I would like to 'do' her...)
