I agree. The new picture next to the keyboard shows the size quite
clearly. It IS a PCMCIA slot on the end. Taking that into account, those
buttons are tiny! The lid also looks like it can't be flipped all the way
around. Apple has had some machines with bad form factors, but they have
been cranking out well-designed machines for a while and I think that they
wouldn't make something like that. Also, if it has HWR, why do they not
show a stylus with it? If they could get it out of the lab and into the
lav unnoticed, I would think that they could grab the stylus.
