Review: I personally owned Q1 and PSP.You cannot compare both of them. 1.PSP 300Mhz processor. Q1 900 Mhz celeron. 2.PSP normal sound system.Q1 SRS 3.PSP 4 GB. Q1 40 / 60 GB 4.PSP small screen. Q1 7 inch touch screen. If you were to ask me to chose which one it will depends. Like listening to Mp3. PSP. Because small and got remote control. Watch movie. Q1 bigger Screen. No need to struggle to see the subtitles. You cannot put a PSP playing mp3 in say a classroom size loud to listen to do your work. Q1 can. Some more Q1 is more to pc than PSP because of the OS. With OS you can do alot. Not like PSP. PSP no Mic so limited. Q1 got mic. PSP battery life, playing games 4 hrs. Mp3 8 hours. Q1 2 hours regardless fo what you do. So conclusion is my PSP is for Games and Mp3. My Q1 is my bible, guitar tuner, organizer, working tool(presentation), my entertainment for movies, note pad for taking notes(meeting or Lesson), transfer data Via Bluetooth to my HP.

Review: Steve, you actually wonder why "Microsoft released a product with such obvious usability issues without fixing them first?" You are familiar with Microsoft products, right?

Review: Steve you're obviously a fanboy. Those of us used to Microsoft's antics always know the first release is the BETA version. The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Review: I will try to report back after some further use. The problems of the UMPC are fixable but they won't "take care of themselves." Someone, specifically Microsoft, has to fix them. What I have trouble understanding is why Microsoft released a product with such obvious usability issues without fixing them first.

Review: @dw This display's native resolution is 800x480. There;s a way to simulate the minimum Windows standard of 800x600, but it p[roduces a fuzzy screen. If the screen offered higher resolution, you could fit more on it but text would become too small to read--it's pretty small as it is.

Review: You need to use it for a week and report back. If it was to be compared to a laptop it fails on many different levels, no unlike a review I read on the PDAs years ago. The UMPC is the future...need you look any further than the IPOD and other. You concerns on software "fitting" are justified, but they will take care of themselves. Try it for a week/month...and you will not want to let it go....

Review: I assume the comments you make could not largely be fixed by adjusting the resolution?
