I’ve been in bed for the last three days with something nasty and about the only thing I’ve done is use the Pepper Pad 3 to check email and Bloglines. They should sell these things to hospitals!
It doesn’t look like there’s been much news though. A RISC-based Linux Pad seems to be about it. Personally, I’ve been mulling over the Vista-on-ultra mobile PC question. Its just not worth it at the moment and I wish the manufacturers would concentrate on XP and the OS for the next 18 months. If they don’t, the prices of UMPCs will continue to rise. I’m totally in agreement with Thoughtfix
One other thing before I drug-up again, 1024×600 on the Kohjinsha – which I’m using now because the Pepper Pad doesn’t have any offline blogging tools – is very very good. The Geode appears to be much better than the Intel devices at running non-native resolutions. I’m now convinced that a 1024×600 native res on a 7″ screen is the way to go.
