You can use a Bluetooth keyboard pretty much anywhere you can sit with it on your lap or a table in front of you. One might legitimately worry about looking like a huge dork in public, but for a lot of people I imagine there is a lot of appeal to a device that can throw up a virtual array of multiple monitors anywhere they want to sit down and get some work done.


Yes let me just rip the keyboard I carry with me out of my back pocket.


Well, you do you, but if I were using a headset like this as a laptop replacement I would put it and the keyboard in a backpack. You know, just like how I carry my laptop around today.


I actually carry a keyboard around with me in my laptop bag 'cause I think keyboards on laptops all suck these days.

But that's probably not the exact point you were making and yeah, I'm in the minority.

Just don't dismiss my corner case, por favor.


Well the keyboard I use everyday fits my pocket. I'd definitely use this with my keyboard.


Sure. But you can use a laptop on any table.


Or on my lap, for that matter, but it can't throw up a virtual array of huge monitors. Even the biggest laptops feel cramped next to my desk setup at home.


But my array of huge monitors has more resolution than 2160x2160 and multiple people can look at them at the same time without getting nauseous.


Your "array of huge monitors" is, I assume, not in any reasonable sense as portable as a laptop or a headset and BT keyboard. You're talking in circles.
