This concept for a portable, napkin-like computer was designed to be used in a group environment.
It works like this: The computer is in the base station. Data and images are sent wirelessly from the base to the 'pens' which in turn, transmit to the 'napkins'. There can be multiple users or multiple 'napkins'.
The screens can even be put together to make a large screen ('towel?')
The high tech napkins were designed by Avery Holleman.
