This is cool but phones have fit in my pocket for years. It's all about the form factor if you want a PC.

I'm waiting for the PC that's the size of a thumb drive that you just put into any hdmi port.

All peripherals connect over bluetooth, and power will have to come from the hdmi port.

... an intel compute stick?

What? This exists? Does it get all power from hdmi?

[happymellon]

No, they normally require a usb power hooked up.

A small Powerbank could help in that case, if no power socket is available. But generally power sockets aren't far away from HDMI ports, at least in my experience.

Google intel compute stick for one that already exists.

In my comment at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33004670 I called out a lot of advantages a device like this could have over a phone.

This exists but is a lot of money for a bad computer. By comparison an intel NUC can actually be a decent computer at 4.6 x 4.41 x 2.01 inches. Why would you actually want this?

[lambdafourtwo]

Did not know this exists. Well I want it to fit in my pocket. A NUC can't.
