Not quite sure how this fits into Themes and Apps but....


There's a KDE tablet coming out...could be the base for what you're talking about. And the attrix laptop dock basically does what you're talking about. So a combination of the two ideas....who knows.

if the evo has it, it could probably run. There would probably be no data though
