Actually, what is missing is the "real" Ultra Mobile PC. No company has built one. The original intent was a small touch screen PC at a convenient price. Instead, we ended up with old technology. We need the slate style, good resolution, and long-lasting battery life. Instant-on is also important or fast boot time. Pocketable is definitely not a requirement because pocketable forces the screen to be even smaller than necessary.
