laptop has no dedicated number keys... An extra option that brings number keys beside your short keyboard is might be not necessary, but some might prefer it.


Dedicated number keys are in the top row of every keyboard.
The 10 key tight pattern that some might enjoy is built in to the standard laptop keyboard and can be accessed by using the Function key. The UIO,JKL,M<> keys work just fine for those that prefer a tight pattern.

"uiojklm,." That's what I get when I hold down the fn key. Num lock was removed from Apple laptops several revisions ago. Although there is already an app that turns your iPhone into a 10 key.

FM/AM tuner, yeah right! Let's pack a 18th centry technology antenna into a 21st centry device. I am sure it's real easy given all the other antennas that are packed in there.
How about a digital FM/AM tuner and a DTV tuner? Oh that would compete with apples products.
How about an IR/RF transmitter so I can control my TV and open my garage door and control my X10/Insteon devices directly.
I would like to connect a lazer barcode scanner to it and link up to an inventory database in which I can upload pics of the items.

Physical keyboard is also something I'd really like to see. Macally made one http://is.gd/rTHj, but it is not on their website now.
And YES, no bluetooth, but rather a dock style keyboard, with the option of attaching a power supply.
Of course, it should be super portable, i.e. light, thin, foldable or rollable.
