    Am I missing something, as I don't see the point of a huge keyboard and tiny screen?

    Basically the computer is the keyboard. You do use the small screen, but you can also plug it into a big HD screen too.

    Now you need to plug in a computer and a keyboard, with this it's just the keyboard.

    The small screen would be like a touchscreen on a tablet, so you can use it for navigation I guess.

    So could all learners have their own keyboard/computer that they carry around, and then a college provide loads of screens that they then plug into?

    @davefoord: that sounds like it could be a good idea. Nice as the micro-laptops are, the screens can be a bit on the small side for some. Portable computer with access to a large screen (or even a portable projector).
