A Netbook/ultramobile hybrid from Sharp
,----[ Quote ]
| It's got a pretty robust battery life--up to 10 hours,
| according to Sharp--and runs Ubuntu.
|
| [...]
|
| The way you use it, though, is more like an ultramobile
| PC. Holding the NetWalker with two hands, you type with
| your thumbs. On the right side above the keyboard is an
| optical pointer that, when you run a finger over it,
| functions as a mouse.

Sharp NetWalker PC-Z1 mini-laptop unboxed
,----[ Quote ]
| Whatâs a bit astonishing is that this tiny laptop running
| Ubuntu Linux isnât the smallest clamshell device out
| there. Jenn also takes the time to compare the NetWalker
| with the UMID mBook M1 which is even smaller and looks
| more like a smartphone with a larger-than-average keyboard
| tacked on. The NetWalker dwards the UMID, but itâs still
| miniscule compared with a typical netbook and my guess is
| that touch-typing is going to be out of the question.
