Cisco Cheng has a pretty good review up on the Fujitsu LifeBook 810 that you will enjoy looking at.  This very small 1.5 pound device has a lot of features, good functionality and a killer price of $999.  The price alone is well worth giving this UMPC a serious look.

So what did Cisco have to say?  Well, here is just a  piece of his article:

From a design standpoint, the 1.5-pound U810 will draw oohs and ahhs when seen by itself, but less so when compared with the OQO model 02 or the Sony UX180P.

The device looks like a miniature laptop, similar to the FlipStart in that it’s a clamshell with a lid that protects the screen and the little keyboard. The OQO and Sony UX, on the other hand, have screens that slide upward, like a T-Mobile SideKick 3. The U810 adds one more feature to its repertoire: The screen can rotate 180 degrees, essentially making it a convertible tablet. At 5.6 inches, it has by far the largest screen of the devices I mention here, though reading text on it is still a recipe for eyestrain.
