So here are my hopes and dreams for the ipad....

What if the ipad could be integrated into a blade-style network workstation? Like the new lenovo coming out, the ipad runs a modified OS. However, the lenovo switches from Linux to windows 7 when dropped into the dock/keyboard/what apparently is additional ram and another processor.

Based on this, dock the ipad to a blade server (obviously user customizable) and it switches to snow leopard (or something like it), it adopts an additional processor core (or 3), and RAM. Tadaa!

Now you can have a powerful macpro experience, and be able to grab and go with select software and data saved. It's a complete solution.

Plus, it'd be really cool.

I like your idea! It makes a long time I'm not updated on "already there" products. And of course, a kind of "Pogo Sketch" could be great to work with it
