I don't like the wired approach. It reminds me of our first VCR as a kid that had a wired remote. lol

I'm sure others are doing it too but I think that Asus has it right with the Transformer line. You have a tablet that is self contained. But you can easily attach the keyboard which then turns it into a laptop. The keyboard has some additional I/O and another battery. I wonder if it would be possible to take that one step further and have additional cpu/gpu power in the keyboard so that as a laptop it is even more powerful.

that's an even better idea, but OS wise will probably cause problems. The original idea is simple enough to implement 5 years ago, I can actually take my old x61t and probably hack it myself...
