I cant wait for xp. But i am curious as to how we woild use the mouse. This would be great for the many times my actual pc is in florida getting fixed. Quick word of advice. Do not buy a toshiba laptop.

i would guess that its touch screen. i actually used a touch screen tablet pc and it was pretty neat. a little faster than my phones processor 7xx mhz

yah, tablets can be pretty cool.
I wanted to get a macbook one.
I saw some guy that was turning macbooks into one.
I'd just want it so I could doodle all I wanted in class,
just so I didn't have to use up all of my paper in my notebook, haha.
and use it for other things for class of course. :D:D

Ur talking about axiotron modbook. It will cost U about 3 gran to have ur macbook converted or 5 gran if U wanna buy it from them. BS! I will just buy 5 different kinds of hardcore lappy's and tablets with that money.LOL. Well anyways, Yeah tablets are cool. I have one and I also have a UMPC. I use both for navigating too. OMG. MY tablet is 12" so imagine how big my navigation system is.LOL my UMPC is 7". I am currently trying to emulate WebOS in it. Then I will try the android after.
Well anyways, The Iphone will prolly not emulate XP for everyday use. I think the dude just trying it just to show the versitility of the device. It will be extremely difficult to navigate on a 3.5" esp. using a capacitive screen. U'll be taping all over the place. That is why tablets have pens.

Thats a very good point. Xp on a screen like this would be next to useless. Remember you can put OSX on any pc with an intel processor

well...its a good development I won't lie. I am impressed
2 years give or take and iphone is running windows...it actually makes me want to buy the iphone again - almost
but of course windows on such a small screen would be rather annoying but the development is still in a good direction
good job emulators
