what about one you can already buy? i have been following the oqo for over a year and a half and it still is not being released, they always had the estimated release date at about six to ten months from the last update to the website. at one point their news finished with a story stating that they didn't really expect it to release (not the company, the reviewer/reporter). but.. sony has the u70 in japan, and available worldwide through importer - dynamism.com - a specializer in ultra-portables and slim-tops, they also carry the more expensive cellular phones.... check this thing out..
it is available here - http://www.dynamism.com/u70/ - for 2749.99 (us dollars) with a 20 gig hd, 512MB ram, wifi, touchscreen, etc... probably the sweetest i have run across, and it is actually available for purchase... unlike the oqo or the flipstart...

The OQO model 01 ultra personal computer (uPC) is a fully-functional Windows XP computer. The OQO has a 1GHz processor, a 20GB hard drive, 256MB of RAM, a color transflective display, and integrated wireless, as well as Fire Wire and USB ports. It is powerful enough to run your most complex applications.
Just 4.9 inches long, 3.4 inches wide, .9 inches thin, and weighing only 14 ounces, the model 01 can fit in a pocket or purse and go with you anywhere. For easy typing and cursor control it has a complete thumb keyboard with TrackStik and mouse buttons as well as digital pen and thumbwheel. It is the much anticipated device for people who previously had to choose between the bulk and awkwardness of a laptop and the limited capability of a PDA.
The OQO model 01 is also the most versatile computer to date. With the OQO docking cable, it can easily connect to projectors and Ethernet. Placed in the desktop stand it is a desktop computer, allowing you to connect easily to a variety of peripherals, including full-size keyboards, printers, scanners, and high-resolution monitors. It shifts easily from one mode to the other with no data synchronization required.
With an OQO model 01 you can move throughout your day and enjoy constant access to all your information and Windows XP programs. You can use the same computer for high-powered applications at work, sending email at home, listening to music on a train, or watching a movie on an airplane. It is the only computer you need. |

Man I'd love the orange PC. To be able to take a monitor and a cube in your pocket to a LAN.... Joy....
Even better would be if they made the monitor and keyboard wireless, so they can integrate the orange thingy into a mouse. Then when people ask, "Where's your machine?" you can say, "In my mouse" and be the coolest guy at the LAN... Ah.....

Someone had the good idea to take apart the OQO and to post a bunch of photos on the web.
