This would make a fantastic netbook replacement in a world where people weren't so limited in their imagination and so eager to make excuses for each other's limited imaginations. We could fire every tech writer out there, even the good ones, replace them with average kindergartners, and still have a net improvement in tech writing.

My idea is to make an uncramped keyboard, and then let the device fit into that, not to fit a keyboard to a cramped device. So no, they apparently don't know that idea. A 93% keyboard is the approximate size of keyboards on 10" widescreen netbooks and on the transformer itself.
