    I wonder about keyboard input for office functions. I'm not a big pen user and it looks like a graphic keyboard would take up a lot of real estate in that relatively small screen. OTOH, the split QWERTY on the Q1 Ultra wasn't all that easy to work with, at least for me. Still, there is something to be said for the extreme portability in a device that offers nearly every possible feature one could ask for such as GPS, WiFi, 3G, BT, etc. The only downside is Vista. I can hardly wait for Jobs to come up with a MAC UMPC using OSX 10.5 (or later).
