I mostly want less stuff in a laptop. A well-built 12" tablet, except:

   - entirely solid state: no fans, mechanical hard disks, optical drives, or other moving parts barring the LCD,
   - no touchpad, only trackpoint,
   - no camera,
   - no fingerprint reader,
   - no "trusted computing" hardware,
   - no Windows bundled,
   - a serious warranty on the LCD: no dead pixels, free replacements if vertical dead lines in X years,
   - good battery autonomy,
   - decent linux drivers for all hardware available.
Still waiting..
