I don't think it's a stupid idea, because Asus has been pioneered this idea, who likes like, who doesn't too bad. If they decide launch Padphone 2, I sell my and buy this. The innovative concept is furthermore are providing a better device characteristics with more potent hardware. And that's good. I'm told =)

If Padfone 1 was only a test drive and because of that wasn't offered in many countries.
Then I hope that the Padfone 2 will be the real thing (much more polished).
I really like the Padfone "idea"
And I like that companies are exploring uncharted waters with their wild ideas. :)
@peter:
I never needed to use two devices at the same time (phone+tablet). It's either phone or tablet, I don't have 4 arms, do you? And if you need to use both at the same time you have an issue with your thinking.
Think different! ;)
The only thing that changes from phone to tablet and vice versa is the screen size and nothing more! ;)
The only thing you are correct is the expensive price. For that money you could get a good phone AND a tablet!

A 7" Phablet would be THE device for me
Yes, a smaller one is good while I'm jogging
but a laptop replacement for banking, web browsing, etc
would be highly valuable to me

Padfone is a very, very stupid idea of an expensive, stupid monster. I don't know, one must be blind to waste his money on that junk.
Better solution is to buy independent devices: Nexus 7 + Nexus 3 and you still have money for.. say for example Kindle Paperwhite. Now you can use one or another anytime you want and you are prepared for every possible situation. There is no stupid dependency and every device has its own purpose.

I'd like a high-performance small phone (3.5" or less) that is IP67 compliant with modern peripheral-interfaces (auto-disable if short-circuited) that don't require covers for the connectors, coupled with a dock with 10" or bigger 1080-res non-reflective display. It shouldn't be necessary to sacrify portability for a huge screen like the first padphone when there's a big screen dock.

I don't mind the name, I mind the specs. And if a dual-core 1,5GHz Krait out performs a quad-cored SGSIII, a quad Krait... My goodness!!! And I love the design because it's different from all the rest! And the possibility of the tablet and physical keyboard is just awesome! Just hope the 4G works on 800MHz or 2,6GHz network or else won't work in most of Europe (Germany, France, Portugal for example).
