They need to invent something that is really as useful as the mouse for portable devices.

Something like a right-side touchpad for the thumb would be an improvement. Little joysticks and buttons aren't adequate.

And "under $1000" price tag ... well ...

Plus "Intel® Core™ i7". The battery life on that won't be much, not compared to ARM (which every Android or iPad tablet runs). By the way, although it "looks" like a tablet, it isn't. That thing is actually a "notebook" without a keyboard with game controls (i.e. the operating system says "Windows 8" like not the mobile version).

It is a neat idea, though. And it is nice to see a company working on the concept.

I wonder how a mini-trackball would work on the right side, for aiming. A proportional control joystick with the right dampening would still be a step up from a keypad... but they don't give detail on that. Tilting the screen for fine-tune control sounds interesting if it feels "seamless" with the control pad.
