Sharp updates NetWalker to be Linux tablet 

,----[ Quote ]
| The spec of the NetWalker included a 5-inch 
| display, Freescale 800MHz processor, 512MB 
| RAM, 4GB storage, and Ubuntu Linux OS. 
| Weighing in at 409 grams and rated at 10 hours 
| battery life it was certainly portable, but 
| possibly too small for most people.

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.
