The thing I'd really like to see in a portable computer is a touch-interface/mouse-interface hybrid. For example, you dock your iPad in a keyboard docking station (with mouse), and the interface morphs into standard OSX, with all the power and abilities that come along with that. Take it out of the keyboard dock, and it's an iPad again, with the finger friendly iOS touch interface (and limited to touch apps). Desktop apps and touch apps could share data, but would ideally have different interfaces. E.g. OSX's Mail.app and iOS's Mail app.

For HP of course, substitute webOS "slate" for iPad and custom desktop Linux distribution for OSX (I wish).

This is a cool idea. I'd also like to use the "full" OS when using it as a tablet if I want to, and maybe vice versa.
