This is a good read for anyone thinking about UMPCs in the ‘slate’ form factor. The ex-Q1 Ultra owner writing the blog explains in detail why he ditched it in favor of an Eee PC! Vista gets a kicking along with Samsung’s Q1 Ultra ‘keyboard.’ All fair comment and I have to agree entirely about Vista. It was the worst thing that could have happened to UMPCs. I don’t use my Q1 Ultra Vista at all now. I reach for the XPTE-based Q1b HSDPA and organiser pack if I want to do any work on the go.
I wonder if the new Q1 Ultra Premium with XP Tablet Edition, bigger keycaps and a portable keyboard would change Rich’s tune on this but I doubt it.
