a bit out of Star Trek, but, hey, it's for 2015,
who knows what will be cool in 2015 (if we escape the asteroid hit of 2014, I mean)... They could DO this thing right now, they just don't want to...

this looks great how would you grip the device if left handed?

Here's my impression. This device is very doable, but we won't see this in 2005. I don't feel that a radical form factor change like that will happen that soon. the device is a good idea, but I think we will slowly see handhelds change from there current form, to something similar to that. But it will take a number of years to slowly adapt to a few changes here and there. (We already are seeing more and more buttons being placed on the sides of the devices.)
Also, the eye-tracking technology probably isn't quite ready enough to be added to a device this small. And honestly, I don't think consumers would be ready to operate a device that way.
2015, I wouldn't be suprised to see this though. One thing I think would different if this was released in 2015 is the screen resolution. In 12 years, I think we will be seeing something more like 960x640 or at least 640x480 screens on Palm handhelds.
I think it's a great design overall. I always love to see peoples vision of the future, especially when they have put a lot of thought into it.

No TV tunner?
Samsumg has TV tunner in a PPC model, why won't exist in 2015?
The dual camera feature is cool though

Actually I would prefer a Mpeg2 videcamera + 3+ Megapixels digitalcamera + Palm OS ?.? in a 640x480 screen.
Maybe in 2-3 years?

But I hope in a couple of months.

Regarding to the original poster and to the "prof" designer -

remove the jagged edge, make it a perfect rectangle and leave
the ergonomics to the protective case (every person has its
own preference)

It mentioned something like "it would allow you to utilize digital tickets for events like a Rolling Stones concert, or airline tickets or even your passport." Can Mick Jagger still rock and roll in 2015?:D

looks pretty stupid to me. Looks like a child put it together. Also how do you take a picture of something without it facing away from you? Looks like the camera doesn't swivel.

Cameras. It was explained in the article.

I'm left-handed and the first thing I did is to read the part about the handle.  It says that the battery casing on the side is interchangable (right can go to left and vice versa).

hey flyclieguy ..

there are 3 cam .. plz read in details first ..

about left hand grip .. i think when i hold my clie .. i can either use left and right hand ..

i'm right hand user ..

i think we can get something close to this device pretty soon .. but not all the advance stuff like digital driver license, eyes tracking system, size, etc ..

digital money card .. japanese nz90 supported that ..
