If the Lenovo can do the same split-thumb virtual keyboard as the Moorestown X, and it can comfortably fit in my pants front pocket, and jacket inside breast pocket, and ran something like Maemo, Ubuntu, Android, or OS X lite ... then, yes, the Lenovo would be just about perfect.

If it can't do the split thumb virtual keyboard ... then I actually like the lenovo a LOT less. I don't see typing on the large physical keyboard while I'm completely mobile (no place to set it down and do _real_ typing on it). That would be amazingly awkward and slow.

Wonder how hard it would be to get Nokia to make a clone of the Lenovo Pocket Yoga, as a Maemo based device? :-) Either as a full phone (non-voip-voice + SMS/MMS), or as a ZER01 and/or Google Voice compatible device with built in GPRS/EDGE/HSPA? How many guaranteed customers do we have to come up with? Or how much unit cost for a limited run prototype-ish device?
