The future of Mobile PCs

In 5-10 years, we’re all just going to be carrying around cell-phone sized devices that connect wirelessly to monitors or physically to ‘docking stations’. We’ll just have our stuff running android on the device screen when unconnected, and when we dock we’ll just get blown into a full X session with all our apps and settings carried with us.

  2. It’s funny, I just read a review of the new Motorola Atrix (pretty cool device I think) and then stumbled across your article above. You must be some sort of prophet since the Atrix is doing exactly what you mentioned above (well, I don’t think it is running X while docked though) 🙂
