Apple's Mysterious New Portable Device?
I'm going to assume you've never used a UMPC. I own one and it's become an indispensible device. I literally carry it with me everywhere. Vista's handwriting reco is scary accurate and the ability to run off the shelf apps in a device the size of a small book (not to mention, using it AS a small book) makes it insanely powerful.
It's definitely not for everyone - just like PDAs or Smartphones (or even laptops) aren't for everyone. Different people have different needs - but given that the number of UMPCs being offered is going up and that Intel and Microsoft are still improving and planning new versions of the formfactor suggests that it's actually doing well.
I think Apple could turn out a very nice UMPC, but they'll be new to the market and copying Redmond this time.
