I saw that a couple of months ago and thought it was pretty funky.

Oqo is pretty cool too (http://www.oqo.com/) - more a cut down tablet
than a PIM/PDA

Its a shame Pogo never took off as it had a nice formfactor
(http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/1773120.stm)

I believe there are a few projects around to allow similar
functionality to Suns Smartcard - plug in, authenticate at a
Javastation and get all your 'stuff' using USB-keys.

Not as cool as having a PDA on hand but carrying your computing
environment around in a ready-to-go state is still pretty neat.
