The one area where the 1 1/2 year old OQO still holds an edge over these devices, and even the DualCor is in the size department. It is only slightly bigger in height and width than my HX4700 while being much thicker and weighs under a pound. None of the devices we are discussing come close to matching the pocketability factor of the OQO.

Yes, they are more powerful, and look less industrial, but it's supposed to be a handheld device right? I'm supposed to want to carry it everywhere, right? I think MS and it's partners needs to really look at the current proposed sizes and figure how to shrink these even more. The OQO is definitely as big as I'm comfortable carrying around in my Suit or Pants pocket.
