My wife and I have become amazingly attached to the K3G we bought to take on a trip. Because there's always some contention over who's going to use it, I keep thinking I'd like one "of my own."

What I'd really like is a K3G that's a little more of a tablet, i.e. something I could _easily_ use to check e-mail, surf the web, or SSH into a client's server. Yes, I can do much of that with a stock K3G, and some more of it with a jailbroken K3G, but it's not easy.

Of course, I want the "more of a tablet" item to be just as good for reading books!

So ... give me the same handy overall form factor, but with a bigger screen, the same excellent battery life, but with a little more oomph, the same choices of connectivity, then add a reasonable touch screen so the el-crapo "keyboard" can go away, and open up the OS so I can add the stuff I want. I'd buy one in a heartbeat.
