i'm starting to like this device. could be a good thing to have around, or a present for the wife - but only if it's priced right, starts up quickly, and can have the option of a real keyboard - for when you need to actually type something long instead of using touchscreen inputs/handwriting recognition. wonder if the cellphone/BT connection will work with SE phones?  |
