   I love this little machine, but we need to be clear about its limitations. I have the Q1 Ultra, shipped with Vista and 1 GB of RAM. Performance is sluggish at best in the GUI. Menu items can take several seconds to pop up. iTunes does not play smoothly. Songs jump and hesitate, even without any other applications running. Vista may be the culprit. The display is crisp and clear. There are several way to enter text without the keyboard. Wireless works well. It is unbelievably lightweight and portable. Great little machine if you don't care about smooth performance.

   A lot of features in a small space
   This is an excellent ultra-light computer. I just got mine this morning and I still can't stop geeking out about it. Very comfortable to use when you're mobile, plus you can attach a keyboard and mouse for when you're sitting at the desk. An amazing little computer considering its size. Just don't expect to fire up Half Life in it as it's *not* a gaming machine, altho it appears to run older 2D games without a hitch. (I put Baldur's Gate 2 and Atomic Bomberman on itas a test)nMy only criticism would be the shorter battery life, but you can only get so much power in a small space. There is a larger batter available from Samsung, but obviously that'll weigh significantly more.nOverall an amazing device, very superior to a PDA, and almost as good as an actual laptop.
   Pros: Extremely lightweight and comfortable to usenIt runs a real operating system, not a watered down incompatible Windows Mobile. It even can run LinuxnVery easy to read displaynDecent audio for the tiny speakersnBuilt in 801.11 wireless and BlueTooth, plus a standard ethernet jacknUSB ports - you can attach a real keyboard, mouse, DVD writer, and more for when you're working at your desk
   Cons: You've read it before, but short battery life, aprox 3 hours (If you want more life you'll need a bigger and heavier battery)nA little weak in the CPU and memory department. But it's no turkey by any means.nA little on the expensive side

   Excellent Product
   It would be nice to have an optical drive built in. Perhaps, one of the very small 1.8 GB ones.
   Pros: Small and compact. It is a full functioning PC. Solid, well made, easy to use. Some have said negative things about no keyboard. But, Pocket PCs don't have keyboards, but no one complains there. It does exactly what it is made for and does so very well. This will be my mobile "work horse" computer for my job and business. The speech and handwriting recognition are awesome!
   Cons: Short battery life.
