They did. The typical Apple Finish got rid of the extendability by making it so you can't take the back off to get a shiny shell. They removed the 7 USB ports and squashed everything inside so there's no room for the "GPS USB Dongle" or anything else, to make it slimmer.<p>They got rid of the need for a stylus by getting rid of tiny menus like the right click -&#62; full screen the guy demonstrates, and to make that work they rewrote their software to have cut out the more advanced, less common functionality such that it can be controlled with a few touch gestures.<p>Then they made the keyboard a standard small Apple dock so it can be a picture-frame style device when docked without a keyboard...<p>The Apple finish isn't magic, you can't say "I want that much room inside and that many ports and also for it to be thin and have a very smooth slick case" or "I want completely normal software but also for it to be as tailored to the task as highly customised software".<p>If you don't want "The Apple Finish" then look at the Lenovo link below - basically the same device but done well, but not Apple style.
