It's a start.

One thing I note is it doesn't mention the user input method at all.  
I see no references to user input methods.  I see a mouse like thing 
in the picture, but that is it.  The other thing I see lack of mention 
is the connection method to the internet.  

On the other hand I bet it's an accident waiting to happen. :}

I'm wondering how long till Linux runs on it?  It will take an IBM 
Microdrive, and also has a USB port.

At this point it's 2/3rds of a product.
