Not in the near future, for these thin nifty gadgets to have a lot of advantages but with the current state of technology, they are still quite limited. Battery life is the most common problem for there is still a need for a better power source. Sure we have these solar chargers that come in backpacks and other emergency power sources but the actual battery built into these devices are still limited to a few hours of use.

Time may come when they may be the next big thing but for now, it is still a fad or status symbol. Part of us wants to get the latest and most exclusive gadget around but they still have a long way to go in terms of computing power and use. They may have a niche to fill in but for mainstream business and overall general use, the standard laptop still rules. Besides, who wants an expensive gadget so thin you’d forget it was in your folder and then sit on it while getting into the car!
