While you can still call it fantasy, anyway. Alan Kay, ex-PARC
researcher, envisioned Dynabook back in the 70s: a computer
that you could carry around with you. Imagine that! Once he
felt confident that this would become a reality he moved on:
"We have to start thinking of computers as something you
can wear." Palmtops edge toward this category, but keitai
has a foot in the door - I am already starting to feel a bit
naked without mine.
