Here’s a concept we’ve bandied around ourselves from time to time: a notebook device with a modular screen that becomes a handheld. The Institute for Information Industry, or III, is showing off just such a concept at Computex. The base system is an HP Mini 1000 netbook, but the touchscreen is actually a removable UMPC. VIA is powering the guts of the modified Mini with a 1.6GHz C7-M while the UMPC is an ARM system running Android.
