Gal maybe you should try using the touchscreen because your typing skills with the keyboard suck. Gal, apple doesn’t care about gamers, thats not their market. They don’t want the build-you-own crowd.

J.C. sorry i misunderstood, its carryover from people whining bout the blackberry 9000 series picture.

Apple is really getting to the point where they’ll toss anything out there. This doesn’t look like anything major, at least compared to their other products. I’m a big fan of Apple, but this isn’t something I see hitting it big.

As for BGR and the articles…while I like the site and will continue on reading, it is becoming more and more like Engadget.

more apple hating. its worse than the fanboys now.
I agree that the typing is what would make or brake the device. I have no problems on the iphone but on the umpc it needs to perfect to sell the device. Their touch extensions of the OS are very good so I cannot imagine them not using them in some form for a pc.

pheer, its not difficult? then why don;t more people do it. Its not easy.

J.C. – why do people think these pictures are real? did you read that anywhere in the article? get a clue.

Gal, your blind hate of the apple products can blind you to some pretty nice gear. I do think its going to be overpriced but I think it will sell to more than just fanboys.

Jesus, this site has hit an all time low. BGR start paying better or steal some better writers for the love of God.

This wont be an iphone. This will probably be more an e-book reader like the Kindle.

NOBODY CARES. Seriously, if you need it so much, just buy a umpc and run leopard on it, this is not difficult, people.

Having room for error on typing on a cell phone is one thing but until its spot on, no keyboard for a Touch Screen UMC like this is going to be hard to swallow especially with the price that will come with it.

Seems neat.
I’ll just wait for the people walking down the street using it to get stopped and asked “Why is your iPhone so damn big?”
