You may or may not be aware of Sharp’s lovely looking new netbook, the Mebius PC-NJ70A.
What makes this netbook stand out from the crowd is the 854 x 480 resolution LCD that Sharp has decided to sling in where the track pad should be.
The screen automatically adjusts brightness based on surrounding light and work as a secondary display for things like adjusting an equalizer with your grubby mits.
Those lovelies over at Akihabara News have generously shared a video whilst they were at the unveiling of Sharp’s Mebius netbook.

Granted the icons and apps shown aren’t as funky as you’d expect but I’m digging the way things seem to be moving – having a dual-purpose trackpad and secondary display / widget panel.
Unfortunately the rest of the netbook is a tad generic: 10.1 inch display (1,024 x 600), 1.6GHz Atom N270 processor, 1GB of RAM, a 160GB HDD, three USB 2.0 ports, Ethernet, WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR and a multicard reader.
No fixed pricing as yet but ¥80,000 (£555) seems to be the area.
