I beg to disagree. That's not a niche market. Who wouldn't find a use for the device like that?

You just described the successor to laptop. We will end up, eventually, with a bendable, likely film-thin device with wi-fi (or equivalent), colour screen, stylus, touch-screen, running the same set of apps found on (powerful) workstations reserved for our stationary work table...

PC, mobility, the next generation. Paperless office.

That's a huge market.
