Are you saying it doesn't have two firewire ports?

It lacks the niceties and synergies afforded by the nice suite of peripherals available for my Fujitsu Stylistic [...] being able to drop my pen slate into a docking station on my desktop and instantly being connected to full-sized keyboard and mouse, Wacom graphics tablet, 17" display, network, printer and CD-ROM drive is something I'm not wild about giving up.

Not that I'm in the market for the ModBook myself, but it does come with a SuperDrive (your last point) and BlueTooth/AirPort should solve issues with keyboard/mouse, network, and printing (why tether to a docking station for such?) ... that leaves the tablet (which it somewhat already is) and the external display, two peripherals that can still be connected to the ModBook, no?

I don't see the ModBook missing out on any of the above.
