Why doesn't Apple make something like this? It could even be very small

small LCD video screen would also be cool - maybe the form factor of a
PocketPC...



Go ahead - ask the company that let the A2-line die in favour of the
Mac and abandon the Newton about economical decisions.


Right.  I think it's safe to say that, for a host of reasons ranging
from business to personal, Jobs hates the Apple II.

On the other hand: You could run the Apple emulator for the Palm if you
think that an A2 without a keyboard is sexy...


And there will soon be nice emulators for small keyboarded devices.
