MSI Windows 7 Tablet/Projector Combo Prototype

"MSI showed off a tablet with a projector built into its top edge at CES this year. Looking at the size of the device's "brain", it's a wonder anyone missed it."
Possibly courting the traveling businessperson, MSI's tablet/projector prototype runs Windows 7, and sports a built-in swiveling projector. Looking a bit clunky, and perhaps a bit unwieldy, this could potentially replace several devices in a road warriors travel bag. Perhaps using this for taking a powerpoint presentation 'on the road' would be a good use, or projecting a Windows desktop on a wall or larger surface area (for example, for a software training session) could be reasons to consider this device. To me it seems like a niche product with limited appeal, but obviously MSI has something in mind with this device. Anyone care to venture a guess?
