This is nothing new... it is around for 2 years I think. It was vaporware
but they finally made it to enter the market. It looks really nice but 3
hours of continous use of mobile device is not enough. I can not imagine
running and looking where to plug my charger few times a day. Now I know
that my Pocket PC will last for about 8 hours which is fine.

The time for such mobile PC's has yet to come.

Hi,

Am not being funny but everyone says they want one, is this some kind of
United Nations-sponsored program giving away PDA maybe because of their
success over the last 50 years or something, if so which web site do I need
to go to register or applyl to get a free PDA?

Thanks in advance.

Ok ok calm down, I was just joking there, DOH!!!!.

Rather have this:
http://www.dynamism.com/u70/

At least it is an actual product, and not some "next big thing" that we keep
having to hear about over and over...

Hope you have about 5 or 6 of them to sell. It's a tiny laptop/tablet and
priced like one. Assuming it gets produced this time.

Having moved to pda from an HP100LX palmtop I can safely say -- a
palmtop computer IS TOO BIG I don't care how much computing power it
has. It just can't be taken everywhere like a pda can -- I tried every
way possible to carry the HP -- shoulder case, belt case, fanny pack.
It just doesn't work for a man especially in the south with light casual
clothing. It gets left behind more and more -- and always when it's
needed. Nice gadget but I'll stick to a pda that can be on me at all
times.

Don't mention your 'fanny pack' if you ever visit the UK Jud.
There's a good chance you'll be laughed at!
