OQO model 01
http://www.oqo.com/

In 2000, Jory Bell (CEO) and Jonathan Betts-LaCroix (CTO), together with Andrew Popell, Michael Prichard, Nick Merz, and Robert Ford, founded OQO and set out to shrink a Windows XP computer into a pocketable device. Their vision was to transform personal computing in the same way mobile phones revolutionized telecommunications. San Francisco-based OQO demonstrated its initial proof of concept at WinHEC 2002, signaling the next era in personal computing. OQO unveiled its first product, the OQO model 01, at the 2004 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) where it won awards including TechTV's "Best of Show" award in the mobile computing and wireless category. Fundamental to OQO's philosophy is an integrated product development process. Experts in electrical and mechanical engineering, industrial design, software, and operations work together from conception through production. This functional structure has allowed OQO to rapidly advance the state-of-the-art in PC architecture. Click here for the PC Magazine review.

My wish would be to trade in my Toshiba Libretto for this one to use in all my national speeches, presentations and workshops ... ;-)
