Sorry for the stupid question, but what kind of keyboard could someone use
for such an implementation? Do those little palmtops like the Sharp xoros
come with keyboard or they use any software based tuch screen staff?

Regards.
Nektarios.

You can buy the Mini ITX boards that are inside that
box for cheap. Throw it in a box and you have the
same thing. You can also go down to about 4x4 inches
with and PC/104 CPU board. There are now a wide range
of single 4x4 or 4x6 inch boards with audio including
Pentiums, Geodes, Crusoe, etc. They are selling for
as low as $350 (with processor, without RAM). The
lower power units tend to cost more. I have tons of
info on embedded hardware and such here:
