I would like to see a portable device with a 24 inch screen. It sounds a bit crazy but if the hardware industry leaders would invest in flexible (possibly even folding screens) you could have a device about the size of a PS3 you could use in default mode as a phone but would open up to a 12 or 24 inch screen for all types of visual media. Add a great headphone jack and you can get most of your media on the go with a nice size screen. Add some color e-ink of an advanced resolution and you could eliminate most of the media devices in your home and carry your data with you. Make it a touch screen with a full sized keyboard layout and you can replace your PC, Cell Phone, Laptop, Netbook, Ipod, T.V., Radio, etc. Even books.
On an airplane with limited space open the device to 12 inches. At home in a comfy chair or at work open the device to 24 inches.
