这玩意儿其实算是整个 Computex 2009 上小姜看过最创新的一个 Netbook 产品，结果偏偏是个上市时间不明的政府机关产品 XD。简单来说 Mtube II 下半是个正常的 Via C7-M Netbook（事实上他们是一台 HP 2133 改的），而上半则是一台可分离式的 ARM 架构 Tablet。平常的时候可以只用上面 Tablet 的部份，但需要更强的运算能力的时候，插上去就可以跑 Windows 的应用程序了。
这是怎么办到的呢？其实说穿了不值钱，它只是在 Tablet 和主机之间做一个网络联机，然后使用远程桌面将主机的画面送到 Tablet 上。这样做虽然会让影片播放之类的应用执行困难，却留下了 Tablet 离开主机后，还能通过无线网络继续 access 主机软件的可能性。
现场示范人员说这东西要能实现，快的话至少也要个一年才有可能，只能希望有厂商赶快 pick up 这个概念啰！继续阅读里有影片。

<Computex 2009: Mtube II from III*>
We think this thing might be the most innovative netbook in this year's Computex. However, it's a creation of a government organization, which means the chance to see it in the market will be slim. Basically, the lower half of this Mtube II is a normal Atom-based netbook (a modified HP2133 actually), and top half is a detachable ARM-based tablet. Under normal usage, the tablet can operate alone, however, when more processing power is needed, the tablet can be reattached to run Windows applications.
The mechanism behind this thing is simple. A network connection is patched between the tablet and the lower-half base, and a remote desktop application is used to transmit the screen from the base to the tablet. The delay in between may limits its use in video replay or similar applications; however, this design leaves the possibility open for accessing software applications running in the base via wireless connection, while the tablet part is detached from the base.
The staff onsite told us, it would take at least another year of development for this to become a practically usable solution. Meanwhile, we hope there will be some manufacturers picking up this idea and turn into something marketable. Checkout the video clip after the break.
