Wow that was pointless. Are you trying to boost your post count? But then again you got me to read it. Monkeys always look :wink:

Yeah, that computer has been discussed many times here... It's a very interesting concept.

Please, next time use a better subject title!

[dean_shan]

Oh I see you added somthing more since my last post. It's a little less pointless.

[Steven Cedrone]

I changed the title a bit...

Sounds interesting, I've never heard of this Designtech mini-PC which could potentially be an answer to our prayers. BUT, a see a few major problems with it, but I suppose there are always compromises:

Weight: At 14 ounces (I'm not sure how much that weights ,in kgs!) it would be at least 3-4 times the weight of your average PDA, bodering on impracticality.

Battery: A 1GHz processor and...well you can imagine to sheer battery power required to run it, and the resulting long charging times.

But of course, I hope these will be minor difficulties, and this particular product will herald a new range of ultraportables with decent storage amounts, and reasonable weight. Perhaps hp (or any other Pocket PC manufacturers) should be taking notice.

I personally like heavy Pocket PCs.. they heavier the more expensive it feels. If it light, it often feels cheap... like a alarm clock made out of plastic instead of metal.
