Just watched the TechTV review and although it was a short over-view rather
than an in-depth user review, I did think that the oQo is potentially a
really cool device. It is a shame that it is not an Apple product - perhaps
with a cut down OSX or even better a modernised Newton OS. XP sucks big time
(the reason I moved over the Macs is that XP was so unstable on all the
machines I had) so I am not sure if I actually want to have it on a mobile
unit. It does look very PB Ti as well which is good, though it will not
really match my Pismo or Cube. Perhaps its time to modernise to a AlBook and
G5?
