$600 VIA Nanobook video review

Looks nice .... Major feature is the light weight I guess, but there are some cons IMHO:

1. Kinda too small --> might not be really comfortable.
2. At this price point, I can buy a used T4x :D

How many of you guys think UMPCs will "take off"? (I don't think the will.)
Now: T60 2613-EKU | T23 2647-9NU | 600X 2645-9FU | HP 100LX
Past: X31 2673-Y13 | T41 2374-3HU | T22 2647-AEU


Rules of the road :thumbs-UP:

The screen is too small for my taste too but the notebook does not look any bad at all, considering the price and things it can do through those features. I think it could be suitable for people who are always on the go and do not mind looking at such a small lcd.

About UMPCs, the new generation tends to like small and shiny toys, nobody knows for certain what the future holds for these things, but IMHO they will take off.
"I've come a long, long way," she said, "and I will go as far,
With the man who takes me from my horse, and leads me to a bar."
The man who took her off her steed, and stood her to a beer,
Were a bleary-eyed Surveyor and a DRUNKEN ENGINEER.
