The beauty of modern smartphones is that you can carry out any standard task that's available to you on a desktop computer. However, the limiting factor is generally the size of the touchscreen and the fussiness of information input. The Imerj Smart Book solves this problem by supplementing the features of the Imerj cellphone so that you can quickly type emails and view photos and videos in a much larger format.
Hans Lee's design looks like a laptop; however, it seems that it relies entirely on its connection to the mobile phone. The handset is essentially its brain. Two versions of device allow you to dock your smartphone into the back or the side of the Imerj Smart Book so that you have access to a full keyboard and a generous monitor. It's lightweight and great for traveling.
