    While at first glance this looks cool i've got to ask why? Surely a stick PC with slim bluetooth keyboard is more practical? This just feels gimmicky...

    I think it's a great idea. To have everything bar a monitor in a small package like this would be very convenient, a better idea than having, for a example, a separate compute stick, mouse and keyboard to carry round. I suppose it comes with a power brick which would be a drawback, at this point I would say the specs seem good value and if there were a battery-powered version I would probably spring for one.

    Looks gimmicky too. Nice that it folds into a wallet sized thing, but how big is the power brick you have to cart around too ?

    If one is assuming that there is a monitor lying around at some desk where you intend to bring this thing to, you would think that there would be a proper mouse/keyboard there too?

    A compute stick would make more sense (& cheaper).
