wow that looks pretty nifty but i dunno how much i'd enjoy using an 5" 800x480 screen. that would strain your eyes soooo much trying to read anything.

actually for under $2000 that's kinda nice. i was expecting this to be some non existent vaporware that would never be sold. or would be sold for a rediculously high price.



sorta like the optimus keyboard which i'm still waiting on.

OQO was vaporware for years... I wanted one back in 2000, but they didn't have a product until like 2004/5. the problem is that I have an older laptop that I carry around with me just cause all my email is on it. I realized that I would love to have it all on a single smaller unit. the problem is that there is nothing out there (besides this OQO) that is what I would like. it even uses 3G (sprint) so I could be on email 24-7.

oh and they would have to have a model with a SSD.

I'm guessing you never worked for a large company with a centralized IT dept. running SMS programs they can and do uninstall applications on your machines and delete files.

when I got my last laptop from them, I had to install apache like 5 times. they kept deleting it as soon as I connected to the network.
