Thats a pretty slick machine. Sony makes one thats similar, Sharp has a handheld or 2 in their product line, and the Flybook looks pretty swank too. There are a lot of other models in japan too but i cant read japanese very well. the pictures look pretty amazing, especially kimochii.

I think I read some stuff in techdirt about those oqo machines and they ended up underperforming and missing their expected specs.. Don't know about the overall quality but I'd spend some time on epinions.com before I bought any of em.
Nif you should check out some of the tablet Pc's. There around $2,800 but there no bigger than a legal pad and way close to 4.5lbs with battery. I think I can get you some specs of the 10 I just orderd for my practice if you like.

well, i needed something that was ultra small and could run windows xp, i also needed a keyboard and mouse on it. i looked at a bunch, and from what i researched, some products were a little speedier than the OQO, but nothing was as small and compact with a full keyboard and mouse that could run xp. so i went with the oqo.
The fuji ones I orderd all had mouse and keyboards they are just under the screen thats on a swivel. There actually pretty neat will be getting on for myself soon but I have to get my group to foot the bill.

works good, definately light to travel with, and can be hooked up to any monitor, keyboard, or network
