Seriously? You're excited for Switchblade? The thing costs like $3000 and is less impressive than some other laptops available right now. The only thing going for it is the size.
cool concept, but they're going to have a tough time moving them if the price is'nt right.... If what the above comments say holds any water, $3000 is insane... they should shoot for more like $500 or around there....
Personally, I've been looking for a good gaming laptop, found a Toshiba Satellite P755-S5270 15.6" Platinum Notebook i5 for $750 and an Acer for about 550 with similar specs.... I think I'm gonna go with the Toshiba.. They're products are pretty solid and I think it's worth paying the extra $200 for the Toshiba name over "Acer"...
The Toshiba has great reviews and plays most current games at medium to high settings...
Anyone have one of these and know how well it operates?

For $1,100 you can get a laptop that will outperform that thing, you just wont have the useless touch screen thing.

I think you're confusing this with the Razer Blade, the $3k laptop.
The Switchblade is a NetBook. It doesn't have an official price, but rumor says about one grand.
Ether would be too expensive for their target demographic.

I'm really happy that they're taking the keyboard + variable LCD trackpad design from the Razer Blade and putting it into their standalone keyboards (http://store.razerzone.com/store/razerusa/en_US/pd/productID.241167600/categoryId.35156900) I want to see this tech catch on for all sorts of applications, Photoshop, Sketchup, Blender, Final Cut. Unlike the z-boards of yore, this thing could change with each different application allowing you to have one workstation (or more importantly, one keyboard) completely outfitted for several different tasks.
If a $3k laptop with a touchscreen numpad is their idea of being innovative, then I'm not interested in their "engineering".
Isn't 50 million of venture capital pocket change. Well, what have they done: come out with an overpriced "gaming" laptop, and have come out with some game peripherals that are cool to look at, but get a number of user complaints about reliability on Amazon.
Still, the hand-held gaming PC has the potential to be a neat curiosity. Probably won't work, but eager to see it anyway.

A machine for hardcore gamers where the symbol on the keys do change?
Are those guys idiots? Which person who calls himself a gamer actually looks at the keyboard while playing? And for those people who actually look at the keyboard instead of the screen, why would they want a dedicated gaming machine?
