Seriously, it would look wicked to have a 3 screen mobile setup... except make them all OLED so it can be thinner (yes, it would be expensive). Anyway, with 3 screens it won't look so lop-sided]]>Mar 14th 2009 3:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/

On a serious note, they could actually integrate the wacompad into the touchpad. My personal choice would be a large capacitive touchpad that would automatically switch to the pen mode when the pen is brought near. It would enable the user to use the new multi-touch capability in windows 7 and have an even larger work area for photoshoppin'. ]]>Mar 13th 2009 10:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/Mar 13th 2009 11:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/Mar 14th 2009 10:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/Mar 14th 2009 12:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/Mar 14th 2009 4:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/Mar 13th 2009 10:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/Mar 14th 2009 2:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/
The secondary screens should also be better quality and the main screen should be a RGB screen like the Sony AW. I hope it is a 16x10 because in teh real world, 16x9 is stupid. (Do I really need a 16x9 screen when movies are really 2.35 aspect ratio?) I like to use my computer for work, not only movies...

I do not dig the wacom because it is just too small to be of value so I would remove it.

The intergrated color calibrater is an awesome idea.

Don't get so caught up in aspect ratio as editing (and well planned/coded software) will allow for enjoyable movie view on your monitor(s). What really should be considered is whether or not enough viewable real estate will be provided for your particular situation.

As for how I would change this particular set up... I'd change it from the one added monitor to dual pull-out monitors. Each sliding from behind the primary monitor and having varying viewing angles (not just free swinging like a door hinge). If it would help reduce weight, make the lid split in two, becoming part of the framework for the added monitors might help. Remove the touch pad and simply add function keys to the "Wacom" tablet. Also, instead of making the battery a one piece unit, make available the ability for hot swapping battery packs so that one can choose to bring along additional "cells" and swap a freshly charged cell for a depleted one. That alone would help with customizing one's need for more or less power (one person may need 1-1/2 hours while another may need 3 hours untethered).

I'm sure I could think of more, but this will do for now.]]>Mar 15th 2009 8:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/13/how-would-you-change-lenovos-thinkpad-w700ds/2. Maybe a bigger second screen?
