I have had a tosiba e750 for 10 months but for the last almost 2 months it has been in fora repair.... i could ask the company to either replace the unit with another ppc with same features OR get the money back and spend $250-400 more on a laptop.....
PROBLEM 1
is i really loved my ppc and i an not sure if i will really take full advantage of the laptops features....plus the size is begining to scare me... i liked having access to a mini computer in my pocket... now i would have to LUG around this huge this in a backpack/case.... i dont think i am ready for that kind of commitment... I just want my old ppc back. in a way i hope they fix it soon... invested too many man hours into getting it to run without a hard reset for weeks...plus all the accessories will not work with other unit. VGA out to my plasma, USB mouse/keyboard.
PROBLEM 2
is that i know that a ppc is not really a full computer and i dont want to be stuck with a brick in another 6-12 months... software support for ppc compared to laptops is very little... i'm running wm2003/non-SE so chances are slim that the unit will support any kind of future upgrade...dont mean upgrades to wm2005, but in terms of software and web browsing support.
PLAN B - BACK UP
i could just call it quites and end the whole mobile pc thing...even laptops... TAKE the money and RUN. maybe just wait it out for some new gadget, like a affordable smartphone with WIFI... or a PS3 in a few months hopefully.
let me know what to do?
