Ramsey, *wireless data devices*

In the context of a service like that envisioned for WK, ie. secure access to corporate intranet as well as internet, I think the most useful device would be something about the size of a 8.5"X 11.0" pad of paper (maybe a little thicker, but not much) which would be mostly screen and a functional keyboard. Someone (maybe it was me) called it the 'wireless etch-a-sketch', which refers to a toy that was popular way back in the 1960's. I guess this is really just a super-thin, specialized, laptop that is optimized for communications, graphic display, low weight, and low power consumption.

Anyway, that's the one that would be on my wish list.

Best regards,
Jim
