OQO Examined

D4C5CE writes "The vapor solidifies... After years of waiting and an appearance at CES early this year, some people have finally had the opportunity to try an OQO 'Model 01 ultra personal computer (uPC)' at CeBIT America, and published this report. The device is available to a few lucky pilot customers, but for the rest of us they still won't be shipping before this fall, and they have yet to beat the Zaurus line (hopefully also with wireless connectivity in its clamshell versions soon - Are you listening, Sharp?) to justify a $1500+ price tag."

This is NOT a laptop replacement

[lancomandr]

Of course here comes the commentary about how you could purchase a dandy laptop for such a price. This is not a laptop. This is not a laptop replacement. It's a beefed up handheld for people that need/want mobile computing power and connectivity in a small package. I wouldn't get rid of my laptop for it, but I just can't fit my laptop in my pocket.
