That is the best umpc I have seen thus far. I still would rather see a pocket size version with a form factor like a Jornada 728 or Psion 5mx so it would fit in a jacket pocket yet still be large enough for a touch type keyboard. Having it that portable would create a niche for them. Otherwise you have a device you must carry in a bag etc. and in that case I would rather buy a toshiba tablet instead.

Nice find captain!
I've recently switched back to a BlackBerry and medium-sized notebook and stopped carrying my handtops (down-sizing).
It's very powerful to just make a Contact change in Outlook and watch my BB automatically get the update (no manual synching or ActiveSyncing or HotSyncing needed). Unified messaging is very simple with a BB also and I can't scoff at all day battery life with heavy use.
These are definite areas of weakness for Handtops/UMPCs of today.
