The mysterious unit with the sliding display, trackpad, and thumboard may not even be from Intel, of course, but it was spotted at Computex alongside a better-looking version of this reference design from the IDF era. Then again, it could also be a smartphone, UMD, or MID. No one can really venture a guess at this point because it’s never been seen turned on.
I can’t make out the icons on the two buttons built into the right side of the border or printed on the left side of the screen, but the minimalism is kind of nice. On the other hand, the placement of what I’m assuming is a tiny trackpad doesn’t look too friendly for lefties and the keys seem almost flush against the casing.
Thoughts?
