The Ultimate Portable Cellphone/Netbook/E-Book Reader/Tablet Mobile Tech Device

I’ve been waiting for it for awhile, and it’s getting closer and closer to arriving, but it’s still not quite there.  So what I’m looking for is an Powerful, thin, lightweight netbook that doubles as a tablet PC and E-Book reader by folding over the LCD.  The tablet component should not require a stylus to use, but it should be available for writing.  The final component to this is attaching your cellphone to it in such a way that if you were to remove your cellphone, all the data/programs/etc. are on the cellphone for easy accessibility on the go.  This device is very close to a reality, but some of the components still haven’t been put together.

At the CES show, there are some devices that are getting EXTREMELY close to this “ultimate mobile tech device”.  IBM Lenovo has a new hybrid device coming out called the Lenovo U1 Tablet Hybrid that is a tablet with a notebook attachment.  Basically, it’s a tablet device that snaps into a notebook shell and becomes a notebook.  The device comes out later sometime in the 2nd half of 2009 and has an estimated price tag around $1,000.  Watch more about it here.

Another device unveiled at the CES show is the enTourage eDGe 2-Screen eBook/Netbook.  It runs Google Android.  Watch more about it here.

Tekzilla reviewed another netbook that has mult-touch LCD screen.  Estimated price is $500.  Watch more about it here.
