What is The Brick?

a fairly "big" screen, like a laptop, touch and motion sensitve (like iPhone), with a "small" solid state memory. Synced with the brick, a small powerfull, placed anywhere, computer.
Wireless in all means, the brick will comunicate with anything( your phones, micro, home entertainment system and so on) and the screen, will be your main terminal.

It is going to be an actual brick...

And all the mac puppets will STILL BUY IT!

I think a brick through Windows would be to give away Mac OS X that runs on any PC.

Steve Jobs gets up and say to anyone who doesn't have Apple hardware, "Come into one of your local Apple Stores. We'll have one of our Geniuses either partition your hard drive or wipe clean and then install Mac OS X. Try it for 90 days. If you don't like it, you can come back, and we'll set you back to the way you were before."

And I'm sure there would be an option to download a version and do it yourself if you so dare, but I think it would be about selling the service. It would be about the fuzzy stuff that can't be measured by Mhz, battery life, or G3 connectivity rates.

Think about it like BMW. Imagine if BMW, said, "Come into a BMW dealer, and we'll kit out the inside of your car just like a BMW. No charge! Now the outside wont be the same, but the comfort on the inside would." Everyone with a car would drive right to a BMW dealer.

Apple's Brick through Windows is Service not Software.

I think the brick is the iPhone with keyboard which is much thicker!
Maybe I'm right, Maybe I'm wrong! Wanna bet?

i think mac starts dealing coke, since coke is still worth more than a thousand macbooks.

The Brick refers to an OS X-ported version of Google's Office Suite (word processing, spreadsheet, scheduling, presentation) with some unique integration features and Web functionality.

The Brick breaks Microsoft's one remaining hold over Apple in the realm of desktop applications.

And it's free.

Wishful thinking here:

What if the brick was a docking station/ monitor output for the ipod touch and iphone allowing you to connect a monitor and keyboard. Then your phone/touch would be more like a personal computer.

I think Ben is on the right track, but it is a real "brick" that you can throw at Window users to knock some sense into them.

An Apple Netbook~ around $400 and all the usual specs.

8.9" screen
1GB RAM
Probably either a 16GB SSD or a 160 GB HD
A lightweight iPhone/Mac OS X hybrid OS
Full Multi-touch screen option.

Fully configured, I'm guessing about $600-$700....

What I would like the BRICK to be would include the following:
1) Replace computer hard drive and cable box (so 36+ inch tv screen would be computer monitor.)
2) Could use keyboard or Iphone as Keyboard
3) Phone call ID would come up on monitor (ala Back to the Future 2)
4) BRICK would call you on IPHONES ONLY to tell you you have something scheduled to watch or DVR
